    Midas DP48 Compatibility With Midas MR16 | Wired In-Ear Monitoring Components

    Does anyone know if the DP48 Monitoring System can be used with the Midas MR16 Mixer? Or if there is a solution how this can be configured?

      DaveMorrison No. The DP48 only communicates using the AES-50 protocol. The MR16 doesn't.

      Paul_Vannatto Hi Errol, since the DP48 uses the AES50, the MR18 (or any of the M-Air/X-Air consoles) cannot use the DP48. The only solution is to upgrade to the X32 Rack (or any X32 or M32).

      Dale_M No as mentioned there is no AES50 available on the X-AIR products

    DP48 firmware | Wired In-Ear Monitoring Components

    We are currently using firmware v1.4 on our 4x DP48s. Can someone point me to a full revision history from v1.4 to the latest v2.0. I can only find revision history for v2.0. Is there a full user manual to go with this firmware? All I can find is the quickstart guide and that is for v1.3 of firmware.

    Has anyone update to this firmware version and can vouch for it's stability/reliability?

    Routing DP48s thru DL16 | Wired In-Ear Monitoring Components

    I have a HoW installed M32R connected to a DL16 stagebox thru AES50-A.  How do I configure AES50-B on the DL16 to send to the daisy-chained DP48s used as IEMs on stage? Currently, the DP48s are connected directrly to the M32R on AES50-B on a CAT5 mess along the floor edge. If I could run the DP48s off the AES50-B from the DL16, I would be able to avoid running cable thru the ventilation system, crawl spaces, walls, and drop ceiling to get to the DL16 in the rack at FOH. Will the Hub4 do this or is there a more economical solution?

      Paul_Vannatto Hi Doug, you can daisy-chain the DL16 and the DP48, understanding that the first 8 outputs from the M32 will be assigned for DL16 outputs. These will also pass through (downstream) to the DP48. It also means that you will only have AES50 9-48 available for the DP48.

      The other issue is the upstream signals (see page 6 in the DL16 User Manual). These are shifted one bank over when passing through the stagebox. This will be important if you plan on using the talkback functionality of the DP48 for the musicians to communicate with FOH, because the talkback on the DP48 is on AES50 channel 48. Therefore when passing through the DL16 to the M32, the talkback will disappear. This is why it is recommended to either have the DP48's fed by the other AES50, or get a Hub4 which has a true pass through.

        GaryHiggins Very helpful advice! Makes perfect sense when I think more about it. I have not used them in a stage box daisy chain but I am going to note this for future reference.

      RexBeckett Hi PowerOne, is your plan to use the HA8000 to feed multiple headphones from a single P16-M? This should work provided everyone is happy to have the same monitor mix.

      In my experience, musicians usually want individual monitor mixes. I don't see that the HA8000 would be much help with this.

    DP48 | Wired In-Ear Monitoring Components

    Hi,

     

    I noticed i can only assign an aes channel once to a group. When assingning the same channel to a second group it dissapears from the first group.
    This is logical but.

    When i want to use the DP48 for  two musicians it could actually be helpfull to assign  the channels to 2  different groups.
    Because then user 1 can use group 1 for (example) drums and adjust the individual channels to his own flavour. User 2 can use group 2 for drums and adjust the individual channels for his own flavour.

    Is there a possibility to change this in future firmware?

     

    Willem

    Very Loud Pop(even with fully lowered Volume) when Upstream DP48 in daisy chain... | Wired In-Ear Monitoring Components

    Noticed this recently that when I switch off a DP48 with other units daisy chained to it, the downstream unit will produce a very loud pop sound in the headphones output even though the Volume knob has been fully lowered.

    I noticed it because I could hear the pop from the headphones connected to another unit that was almost 2 meters away when I switched off 1 unit for firmware upgrade and testing.

    Once again the volume level has been fully lowered on that downstream unit yet the pop sound came through so loudly and this happened consistently.

    What will it do to a musician with in-ears when another musician upstream switches the unit off, by accident or for whatever other reason?!

    Please fix this soon.

      Paul_Vannatto The loud popping sound is due to the breakage of the AES50 that passes through the DP48 in a daisy chain configuration when the upstream DP48 is turned off. This has been an issue since the introduction of the X32 (back in 2012) or even earlier. The fix is to get a Hub4 and connect the DP48 from it instead of daisy chaining. The other solution is to make sure nothing is turned off until everyone is finished and no longer using the DP48's. Also make sure you are using shielded cat5e/cat6/cat7 cable with ethercon ends.

        joshtew Wow, I feel there should be much better signal breakage handling from such professional equipment and at the very least the unit should conform to the volume knob setting...

    PM-1 Headphone monitor working with an XR-18 Air Monitor System. | Wired In-Ear Monitoring Components

    Folks:

    I'm trying to make my new PM-1 personal monitor work, (plug in) to the Air XR-18 board, as my band currently uses this system.  In reading the manual for the PM-1, it's highlighting that I would need to use a quarter inch TRS cable end in order to have a stereo feed to the device, but other than the "phones" output on the board, all the other monitor feeds are a male ended XLR output.

    Would a standard XLR cable work with this in stereo, or do you have a suggestion on the type of cable I should be using here to produce a stereo sound field?

    Thanks,

    Tom DeMartino

      DavidKnighton Hello Tom,
      Being that the XLR outs are balanced mono, you would need a very special cable for this to work correctly. Or you could take the mono out into a headphone amp/mixer and that could work too. The receiving XLR on the PM1 is and unbalanced stereo input, which is quite uncommon to see in my opinion. You essentially need to take one hot leg from two aux outs and wire them to pins 2 and 3 of the receiving XLR end. The cold legs of the aux outs need to be wired to pin 1 ground so they're not floating. Let me know if you have trouble with this.

        GtrTom423 David, thank you for your note. Do you think that having this type of cord might help my cause? https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/BPBQFXF20--pro-co-20-foot-excellines-balanced-patch-cable If I had a quarter inch TRS to XLR connector already?

      • PM-1 Headphone monitor working with an XR-18 Air Monitor System.
        RexBeckett Hi Tom, you can get the required cable from the link below. You want the type XLR Male to dual XLR-F.

        https://www.ebay.com/itm/Pro-Shielded-XLR-MALE-Female-to-DUAL-XLR-Left-Right-Y-INSERT-CABLE-1ft-to-10ft/151300270070?hash=item233a32e7f6:g:ipkAAOxy9X5Tb70U

        I cannot recommend using PM1s on the XR18 Aux outputs. The outputs were not designed to feed such low impedance loads. It can result in distortion on the Aux and Main outputs. A better solution is to use the PowerPlay P2 which includes a headphone amplifier. See these notesfor further information: https://community.musictribe.com/discussions/77059/237996/using-the-powerplay-p2-for-wired-iem

      • PM-1 Headphone monitor working with an XR-18 Air Monitor System.
        DavidKnighton Hello Tom, The cable in the link you provided won't work because the way the pins terminate is for balanced mono connection. If you connect a balanced mono source to a stereo input, what will happen is the stereo input will be phase inverted, and will cause acoustical phasing problems. The one Rex shared might work, but honestly I can't tell because the pin termination needs to be exact. He makes a fair point regarding impedance loads. You may want to take his advice and get a P2, as it will solve most of your cabling issues right off the bat.

        GtrTom423 Thank you both Rex and David for your insight. I'm saddened to see how difficult it us to try to use this PM-1 device, especially considering it's from Behringer to begin with. In it's place, I've been using a Mackie Spot Monitor that mounts on my mike stand, as it packs 150 watts of power. I was just hoping to have something in-ear for a change. Either way, thank you both.
