  • 70 Onboard Presets Support Fast System Recall Across Different Venues Or Shows

The RCF DX-1616 is built for system engineers and integrators who need a single, flexible platform to handle routing, processing, and network audio distribution without stacking multiple units. Whether deployed in a fixed install for multi-zone venue audio or integrated into a touring rack for consistent system management across shows, the DX-1616 consolidates functions that would otherwise require separate hardware. The 40-bit floating-point DSP engine operating at 48 kHz delivers sub-millisecond-class latency, making it appropriate for applications where alignment and timing are critical, such as line array processing, delay fill management, and distributed speaker zone control.

Connectivity options span analog, digital, and network domains simultaneously. The combination of 16 analog mic/line inputs with switchable phantom power, 8 AES/EBU inputs and outputs, Dante AoIP integration, and GPIO expansion makes the DX-1616 compatible with a wide range of system architectures, from fully analog signal chains to Dante-networked installations. The built-in Ethernet port supports both remote control and Dante transport over a standard network infrastructure, reducing cabling complexity in permanent installations.

Processing tools on both input and output stages give engineers complete per-channel and system-level control. High-pass and low-pass filtering, 5-band parametric EQ, delay, compression, shelving EQ, all-pass filters, and limiting are all accessible through a Windows/macOS browser-based GUI or the XTouchApp for iOS and Android. With 70 onboard presets, recalling complete system configurations for different room setups or productions is fast and reliable, making the DX-1616 a practical choice for rental companies, AV integrators, and touring production teams alike.
