About the Midas DL16

The Midas DL16 is a 16-input, 8-output digital stagebox with Midas PRO microphone preamps, designed to carry stage signals to the console over a single network cable. Peak Entertainment offers Midas DL16 rental in Madrid and across Spain for sound engineers, bands, production companies and event organisers who want their inputs close to the stage and their cable runs short and tidy. Ask us for a quote and availability for your dates.

What it is rented for

A stagebox like the DL16 suits concerts, festivals, live-music events and venues where the mix position is far from the stage. Midas suggests placing one unit at the front of the stage and another behind the drum riser to mic up drums and amps with short cable runs. Its ADAT outputs can send signals to recording systems, and its ULTRANET output connects to Behringer P16-M personal mixers for in-ear monitoring. It could be complemented with other Midas gear from our catalogue, such as the M32r console; ask what is included when requesting a quote.
