Yamaha TIO1608-D Dante Rack

The Yamaha TIO1608-D Dante Rack is a Dante-equipped I/O rack with 16 microphone/ line inputs and 8 line outputs. The TIO1608-D features the same recallable D-PRE microphone preamplifiers as the TF series delivering extraordinarily natural and musical sound.

The Yamaha TIO1608-D Dante Rack can be connected using up to three units with a fast and easy setup. Users wishing to expand on the TF's already extensive input/output capability can easily add up to 3 units with the optional NY64-D expansion card and the Yamaha Tio1608-D I/O racks. Daisy-chaining the main console offstage and the Yamaha Tio1608-D I/O racks on stage using lightweight CAT5e Ethernet cables allows low-latency, high-quality sound transmission without the time-consuming transport and setup of bulky analog snakes.

Dante High Reliability Network Audio Protocol
Dante has been adopted by the leading manufacturers and professionals in the sound reinforcement industry for its low jitter, low latency, and high sampling accuracy. Using the Yamaha Tio1608-D you can easily configure a high-performance Dante stagebox system with little or no IT networking knowledge. Thanks to the flexibility of the Dante network protocol, TF Series consoles can be connected to an extensive range of Dante-enabled equipment such as R Series I/O racks.

Fast and Easy QUICK CONFIG Mode
By enabling the QUICK CONFIG mode on the Yamaha Tio1608-D, all the connection settings such as network settings and audio patching are set automatically making system configuration easy. After confirming QUICK CONFIG mode is activated on the TF console and Tio racks, simply set a UNIT ID for each Yamaha Tio1608-D, then daisy chain the TF console and the Tio racks. Turn on the power and you're ready to go!

Simple and Flexible Input Selection
Once the basic configuration is completed you can easily assign inputs to best suit your system setup. By using the ALL INPUT function, users can assign all inputs to the Tio racks, the TF console or a PC/Mac device instantly. Users can also change each input to receive signal from multiple locations so that users can effectively use all inputs.

Recallable D-PRE Preamplifiers
The Yamaha Tio1608-D inherits the natural, musical sensibility that we pursued in the development of the TF Series. Mechanical construction, circuit board layout, power supply, grounding, and parts selection have all been executed with meticulous attention to detail and quality, combined with exhaustive performance and listening tests at each stage of development. The Yamaha Tio1608-D features the same recallable D-PRE microphone preamplifiers as the TF Series to provide a consistent, natural, musical sound throughout the entire system.

System Expansion with Tio1608-D
The Yamaha Tio1608-D allows you to easily expand a TF digital mixer system up to 40ch inputs/24ch outputs. System setup uses a Plug In & Play method. Simply connect Cat5e cable, select the device IDs and the system is ready. Remote HA control is available via Cat5e. StageMix App allows wireless remote control of the console from the arena, the stage or the audience etc.
