Explore the Tascam MM-2D-E, a top - notch 2 - channel Dante converter with a built - in DSP mixer. Ideal for audio pros who need high - quality sound and smooth operation. It's super compact, taking up only half of a standard 1U rack, fitting well in various audio setups. Convert 2 - channel mic/line input/output signals into pure Dante signals. With remote mic gain control, phantom power for mics, and PoE, it performs outstandingly anywhere. This device offers a flexible way to integrate analog audio devices into a Dante network. The built - in DSP mixer helps small systems reach full potential. Supporting up to 96kHz/24 - bit sample rates, it guarantees excellent audio. A range of DSP functions, like output effects and a 6 in/4 out matrix mixer, make it adaptable to different audio situations. It also supports Dante daisy chaining, creating a seamless network without an extra switch. User - friendly features include accessible Euroblock connectors for input and output, LEDs showing LAN/Dante status and sample rate. It has a scene preset function for up to 50 presets and will soon have a timer event function for automatic scene switching. It can be remotely controlled via GPI and Dante, and has indicators for monitoring line signals. Key features: 2 - channel mic/line input with +48V phantom power, remote mic gain control, 2 line outputs, 4 Dante inputs/outputs, PoE support, up to 24bit/96kHz audio, various DSP functions, Dante daisy chaining, compatibility with Dante Domain Manager and AES67 Mode, 50 scene presets, future timer event function, remote control via GPI and Dante, half - rack size, status and sample rate indicators, signal indicators, configurable reference level, and included surface rack mountable angles for desk installation.

Using the Tascam MM - 2D - E is quite straightforward. First, connect your analog audio devices to the Euroblock input connectors. Make sure to choose the right cables as it supports Category 5e or faster STP cables for network connection. If you're using microphones, enable the phantom power (+48V) if needed. You can control the mic gain remotely, which is really handy. To integrate it into a Dante network, connect it using the RJ - 45 connector. You can even daisy - chain multiple Dante devices without an extra network switch. For setting up the audio, you can use the built - in DSP mixer and take advantage of the various DSP functions. There are up to 50 scene presets, so you can save different audio setups. In the future, you'll be able to use the timer event function for automatic scene switching. When it comes to power, it supports PoE class 0. If you want, you can also use the TASCAM PS - P1220E AC adapter (sold separately). Some important things to note. The operating temperature range is from 0°C to 40°C, so don't use it in extreme temperatures. When handling the device, be careful with the connectors to avoid damage. For maintenance, keep it clean and dust - free. You can use a soft, dry cloth to wipe it. If there are any issues, refer to the user manual or contact customer support.
