DN9340E & DN9344E Key Features

Space efficiency

The Helix system allows exceptionally compact EQ systems to be assembled. For example, one DN9340E and six DN9344E units would provide 26 channels of EQ, each with graphic, parametric, and dynamic EQ, plus flexible filters, all in 8U of rack space.

Interface to Midas consoles

To further enhance the speed of operation of the Helix system, an interface is provided that connects to Midas Heritage and Legend series consoles. This allows the EQ system to be controlled automatically from the solo system of the console, ensuring that the correct EQ device is always ready for instant access.

Remote control operation

A slave network comprising DN9340E/DN9344E units linked together can be remotely controlled from a PC running the associated Elgar software application via the real panel Ethernet comms connectors (or RS-232 PC port on the front panel). This network can provide up to 32 channels, each with A and B inputs.

Alternatively, a DN9340E master unit can control a network comprising up to 32 channels provided by DN9340E and/or DN9344E units acting as slaves. The master unit also acts as a single slave.

Store and Recall Parameters

The DN9340E includes two types of memory location, to provide maximum flexibility in a range of applications. There are 32 user memories in battery-backed-up SRAM and 32 preset memories in non-volatile FLASH memory. Recalling settings from either memory type uses the same procedure, and the user memories can be stored directly from the front panel of the unit. However, the FLASH memories can only be programmed directly from an external computer. This provides an absolute safeguard for valuable system settings, particularly in fixed installations.

Klark Teknik has a policy of continuous development and may produce updates to the DN9340E or DN9344E host code. These can be downloaded to the unit via the front panel PC Port. To keep up with the latest features and functions, please visit www.klarkteknik.com.
