PRO6 Overview

The MIDAS PRO6 is the second networked digital audio system from MIDAS and is at the heart of the PRO Series Live Audio Systems. The PRO6 can provide up to 64 simultaneous input processing channels and up to 35 discrete mixes in monitor mode, all of which feature MIDAS EQ and a choice of many dynamics processing options. By adding additional I/O hardware the PRO6’s network can be expanded up to 288 inputs and 294 outputs. These connections can be patched and routed on a scene-by-scene basis, by use of the PRO6’s powerful snapshot automation.

As with all the PRO Series the PRO6 benefits from the mix and match of all the MIDAS I/O box options, from the fixed configuration DL251 stage box to the highly acclaimed DL431 24 channel 5-way mic splitter. Flexibility can be further increased by adding the KLARK TEKNIK DN9650 digital format converter offering MADI and Dante connectivity.

Users can navigate the channels intuitively without resorting to layers with the aid of MIDAS’ VCA and POPulation groups. It naturally features the legendary and muchloved MIDAS sound characteristics with comprehensive choice of effects and dynamics processing, including the much-acclaimed XL8 compressor styles.

The PRO6 can to the fully-loaded at a later date to an 88-channel PRO9 with additional hardware and firmware upgrades.
