Description

The DW5066 is an all-in-one wall panel controller for multi-zone digital audio matrix systems and multi-media digital audio mixers. It offers various control functions such as audio source selection whereby the routing can be changed or specific mixing presets (‘scenes’ – only for M2) can be triggered. The control shall be done using the versatile rotatable push dial whereby other settings such as volume, tone control, phantom power, muting, … also can be made. A local line and microphone level input allows the connection of additional input units to be patched with the matrix / mixer while one of them can also be converted to a local line output. The additional inputs allow connection of a CD-player, MP3 player or any other audio source as local input while a microphone can be connected for making announcements. Both line and microphone audio input can be mixed locally using two push-lock potentiometers and 15V phantom power can be enabled to the microphone input for powering condenser microphones. The audio output function can be very useful in applications where a local audio output is required carrying the same audio signal as one of the direct outputs. This can be very useful for monitoring, recording or other system expansion purposes. A 2.5″ graphical LCD display ensures a user-friendly experience for controlling the system and the audio connections are performed using XLR (microphone) and stereo RCA (line) connectors.
