Cloud DCM1e Ethernet Digital Control 8 Zone Mixer

Cloud DCM1e Ethernet Digital Control 8 Zone Mixer
The Cloud DCM1 and DCM1e are analogue multi-zone audio mixers. A digital control system, using a front-panel LCD display and a simple, minimal set of controls replace the relatively large number of switch and rotary controls found on conventional units, yet provide far greater flexibility of configuration than would be possible with such units. The mixers provide a simple, reliable and elegant method of providing audio to multiple zones in retail outlets, bars, hotels, schools, conference centres, offices, factories and other types of premises. Once configured, the mixers allow zones to be combined or separated as space utilisation of the building demands.
The mixers allow connection of eight line level sources, and provide eight zone outputs, two of which are stereo. Any source can be routed to any zone, and the music level in each zone can be adjusted independently. A wide range of configuration options is available to the installer to optimise the system to the premises and the client?s requirements, such as restricting source selection in some zones or defining minimum and maximum volume levels.
A range of optional remote plates is available to permit music control in any or all zones and external inputs from mic and line sources. (See separate datasheets for Cloud accessories CDR-1, LE-1, BE-1, ME-1.) While the DCM1 and DCM1e are also directly compatible with the Cloud PM range of paging microphones, most third-party paging systems are easily integrated. In common with all Cloud installed audio products, a Music Mute input is provided to aid compliance with local Fire Regulations.
The DCM1 has been designed to be completely self-contained, and can be fully configured and controlled without a computer of any kind. However, a software Configuration Tool is available (a free download) to enable configuration from a computer if this method is preferred. The DCM1e greatly extends the DCM1?s functionality by adding an Ethernet interface and an internal web server, allowing control from a smartphone, laptop, tablet device or computer via a web browser.
