Rio1608-D3 is a high-performance 16-input x 8-output I/O unit for Yamaha’s CL, QL, and RIVAGE PM series consoles. This digital stage box is loaded with 16 pristine head amplifiers (with switchable 48V phantom power for condenser mics) that deliver the transparent, natural sonics Yamaha is known for. The Rio1608-D3 connects directly to a Dante digital audio network, giving you flexible system configuration at up to 96kHz. Enjoy peace of mind, thanks to dual redundant power supplies — you can also daisy-chain connections and you’ll benefit from local control of gain and other parameters.
