An incredibly powerful control Surface, although this Allen Heath DLIVE S3000 S Class is created as a small footprint, for the dLive MixRack, crafted with more features addition of audio networking ports, and built-in audio I/O. You can use the Allen Heath S3000 digital mixer as a FOH mixer with its capabilities and clarity it will become the mixer to keep, or you can use this console as a monitor mixer. The dLive series Allen Heath consoles have a very unique sound. They are clean and warm to the ear, and an engineer's dream. It has distinctive attributes of 20 faders over 6 layers, for the fastest workflow in the industry is the innovative Harmony Ui and a 12" capacitive touchscreen.
Harmony User Interface
This Allen Heath DLIVE S3000 S Class is a true digital native, working just like how we are so familiar in using, without even thinking, those smartphones and tablets, that can be found anywhere, that is what many digital consoles are working, to recreate the experience of using an analogue mixer, but Allen Heath DLIVE S3000 S Class makes a huge difference and very familiar and easy to use. Every pinch, drag and drop, swipe, and other gesture responds just exactly how you'd expect them to be, which makes it work for you to feel instantly familiar with its 12" capacitive touchscreens on the dLive consoles. With a set of one knob/ one function rotary control framed the screen, this allows the urgency and creativity of tactile control over key processing functions, working along in harmony with the visual feedback on the screen displayed. To achieve optimal grip and precision control, the rotary knobs have been prototyped 20+ times, and it has attributes of RGB illuminations, with colors arranged to function for instant visual orientation.
Transparent Workflow
Engineers can find themselves feeling increasingly removed from the action on stage as they are drawn more and more into managing the arsenal of technologies at their disposal as the systems become ever more complex and as I/O counts grow exponentially. On our process of design and crafting of the dLive our guiding aim has been to make transparent and fast workflows that allow the engineer to focus not on the mixer but instead on the mix exactly. To allow the user to create a mixing interface that matches their own mental map of the show in the mixing, the Allen Heath DLIVE S3000 S Class's layout is fully customisable. In any and every band and/ or layer, every input or mix can be assigned to any of it, inputs and mixes to be named clearly and colour coded, the virtual scribble strips allow them to, for at-a-glance navigation, it has 26 assignable SoftKeys at their disposal, plus 3 pages of 6 assignable rotaries per screen, so the engineer has no less than those.
Built To Endure
Maybe it’s no coincidence that our lead mechanical designer on the dLive project used to be a tank commander. All dLive consoles have been designed to deliver the optimal balance between strength and weight, employing higher grade metal on the sides and folded steel at key points for added rigidity. Not only does every console, MixRack and expander have dual power supply slots for redundancy, but we’ve also employed the same rugged, hot-swappable PSU design across the range for maximum peace of mind and minimum inventory. Dual redundancy is also built into every audio connection throughout the system. We have also paid particular attention to console illumination, conducting rigorous trials to ensure that dLive excels in the sunny, outdoor settings where many digital consoles become almost unusable.
