Symetrix Prism 12x12 Dante

Form, Fit, and Function - The Symetrix Prism 12x12 Dante

Prism DSPs are equipped with optional factory installed 128 (64×64) Dante channels. The Dante protocol enables ultra-reliable multi-channel audio networking over IP. Together, Symetrix and Dante provide the fastest possible way to implement, control, and maintain a system of networked DSPs and accessories – including third party Dante-enabled microphones, loudspeakers, power amps, and mixing consoles. Models without Dante provide even more accessible DSP pricing for smaller systems.

• DSP Price, performance Breakthrough
• Optional 128 Channel (64×64) Dante
• DSP Processing Identical to Radius, Edge, Solus NX
• Delay Memory Identical to Radius, Edge, Solus NX
