Description

Add personal mixers and compatible stage boxes to your professional audio setup with the Midas HUB4 PRO, a multi-tool in your stage rack that provides analog and digital outputs for various applications. HUB4 PRO features 16 balanced analog outputs, which can supply 4x2 personal stereo mixes from DP48 personal monitor mixers to IEM transmitters.

The HUB4 PRO features Neutrik etherCON AES50 network ports and remote operation via shielded Cat 5e cables, ensuring reliable connections for the transmission of multiple channels in any setting. Its versatile and adaptive power supply can be used globally.

Personal Monitoring with DP48

HUB4 PRO can supply up to four DP48 personal monitor mixers with PoE (Power over Ethernet) and 48 channels of 24-bit/48 kHz audio or 2 x 24 channels at 96 kHz. HUB4 PRO also collects 48 channels of upstream audio and forwards this audio to the FOH console, either from stage boxes connected to the AES50-B (THRU) Port or 8 return channels from each of Ports 1-4.

Cascading Hubs for Large Setups

To meet the challenges of large monitoring setups, HUB4 PRO can easily be daisy-chained to make additional DP48 ports available all the way up to symphonic orchestra applications.
On the other hand, HUB4 PRO can also address situations where you want to connect additional I/O via the same AES50 link to the mixing console. To help build out this AES50 console link, digital stage boxes such as the Midas DL16 or DL32 can be connected to the HUB4’s AES50-B (THRU) Port. The console can pass downstream signals to their respective stage outputs, while also receiving 48 channels upstream from the stage inputs via HUB4.

Analog Outputs for IEM Transmitters

HUB4 PRO features 16 balanced line-level outputs that can carry the 8 stereo mixes from the connected DP48 mixers for connections in the side rack. There is no need to run additional lines from personal mixers to the transmitters, reducing setup time and reliability considerably. Alternatively, these analog outputs can also be used as spare outputs on stage, receiving signals directly from the FOH consoles, e.g., for providing talkback or side fill outputs.

Support for Midas M32 Series Consoles

HUB4 PRO can convey control messages from M32 FOH consoles to DP48 personal mixers as well as remote control messages between DP48 units.
Midas DP48 Personal Monitor Mixers support remote control of other DP48 units and can also receive control information from M32 mixing consoles. This M32 control information includes assignments, names, and colors of channels, which are transmitted via AES50 for easy configuration of personal mixers. HUB4 can convey control messages from the FOH console to personal mixers as well as between personal mixers. This control message system works when DP48 units are connected to Ports 1-4 or to the ports on daisy-chained hubs.

Midas DL8 PoE (Power over Ethernet) Powered Stage Boxes

HUB4 easily interfaces with the new Midas DL8 stage box, which makes bulky analog sub-snakes a thing of the past. The DL8 stage box can be connected to one of HUB4 ports 1-4 using only a simple Cat 5E STP cable. This cable connection from HUB4 can directly power up to 4 stage boxes via PoE support—IEEE802.3at per port—allowing for shorter analog lines on stage.

StageConnect The Future of XLR

The innovative StageConnect interface yields additional flexibility for routing signals in, out, and through the HUB4 PRO. With just one standard XLR cable you can expand the total I/O capacity by 32 channels of lowest latency, impeccable 24-bit audio.

Connect a Midas DN4816-O for accessing 16 impedance-balanced line signals directly in the side rack, where the IEM transmitters are mounted.
Add a DN4816-I for collecting the signals of up to 16 wireless receivers for sending their signals through HUB4 PRO upstream to the mixing console.
DN4816-U can be used to bridge USB audio with Ultranet and StageConnect in a compact rugged DI box case. Adding convenient and cost-efficient I/O flexibility is now on a level of its own with StageConnect.
