HUB4 PRO

The HUB4 PRO is the essential multi-tool in any stage rack, providing analogue and digital outputs for various applications and offering reliable performance for seamless integration into diverse audio setups.  

The HUB4 PRO allows a more streamlined and customisable monitoring experience, with front panel buttons and 16 balanced analogue outputs for sending 4x2 personal stereo mixes from DP48 to IEM transmitters in the side rack. It also allows collecting audio from 4 of the brand-new Midas DL8 Stage Box, which can be connected and powered from ports 1-4. 

Ensuring reliable connections is key for the transmission of multiple channels in any setting, the HUB4 PRO features industry-standard RJ45 AES50 network ports and remote operation via shielded CAT5e cables. With a versatile and adaptive power supply, the HUB4 PRO can be used globally, and it has a rugged 1U chassis making it extremely durable for travel. 

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 2x 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 (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 PRO.

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 analogue 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.
