Quantum 112: Flyweight
Check 1… 1-2…” – DiGiCo Launches its First Flypack Mixer, the Quantum112
Weighing only 23kg/50lbs when housed in a custom Peli case, DiGiCo’s newest and smallest desk brings Quantum Range features and performance to productions anywhere.
Mix anywhere.
Designed to fit within a rugged and robust Pelican™ Air 1637 case, the console, when packed, weighs only 23 kilograms – a perfect 50 pounds – qualifying it as a standard checked bag option on most flights. But despite its ultra-compact form factor, the Quantum112 is still a giant on features and functionality, every bit a Quantum in terms of its pedigree.
Based on the newest seventh-generation FPGAs, DiGiCo’s latest product offers 80 input channels with 24 aux/subgroup busses, LR/LCR master busses, and a 12×8 matrix, all with full channel processing. 12 control groups plus two solos are also available.
Sporting a 17-inch, 1000-nit, high-brightness multitouch screen with both a meterbridge and soft quick select buttons for speedy and intuitive operation, the Quantum112 is additionally equipped with 18 individual TFT channel displays to provide clear user feedback and interaction. Beneath the main display are a dozen newly-sourced 100mm touch-sensitive faders, selected for their smooth movement and precision control.
The DiGiCo Quantum112 naturally incorporates now-familiar Quantum Range features like Mustard Processing channel strips (20), Spice Rack plugin-style native FPGA processing options (6), and Nodal Processing (24). 12 graphic EQs are further available, as are eight FX Rack slots.

Virtual Soundcheck
DMI-AMM
This card offers both the SD-Range and the S-Series consoles 48 channels of automatic microphone mixing which can be used in any console input channel.
When dealing with live sound scenarios that involve several live microphones with unpredictable dialogue, mixing them can be a challenge for an engineer. DiGiCo are proud to offer the DMI-AMM (Automatic Mic Mixing) as a versatile solution for these issues.
The DMI-AMM system works by instantly fading up a microphone’s gain when one person begins to speak and reducing the gain of the other microphones. When the speaker pauses, all microphone levels return to medium gain, collectively matching the level of one microphone with the full gain share. The resulting effect is as if all speakers are sharing one microphone. When several people talk at once, the gain is shared between the speakers. Each channel is given a Share Meter, which is shown in percentage, not dB. This makes it easy to see what channels are taking the majority of the gain.
The DMI-AMM also allows adjustment of the relative sensitivity (or weighting) of the AMM on a per channel basis. This means that should one of the speakers be quieter than the others, they still have the ability to “take over” the system. Furthermore, the card features a vital noise floor control that imposes a lower limit on the level detector of all mics in the AMM to prevent a noisy mic from catching a disproportionate share of the gain.
This card offers both the SD-Range and the S-Series consoles two independent 48 channel automatic microphone mixers which can be used on any console input channel. Both the S-Series and SD-Range allow a Virtual AMM so that the AMM routing and parameters can be set before a card is inserted.
Main Features
- Two independent 48 channel automatic microphone mixers
- Weighting control on a per channel basis
- Share meter in percentage to show which channels are taking the majority gain share
- Noise floor control
- Simple integration into both the S-Series and the SD-Range software
- Virtual AMM to set up a session before the card is present
- Compatible with S-Series, SD12 and Quantum Range
DMI-ADC
This card provides 16 analogue inputs on 2 x 25 way “D” connectors. The ADC card is a line card only. There is no microphone amplifier or phantom power available. There is no gain control function for these inputs (only digital trim). Maximum input level +22dBu.
As a simple solution to expanding the local i/o of the S-Series, DiGiCo offer the DMI-ADC and the DMI-DAC. Both use 2 x 25 way “D” connectors to add either 16 analogue inputs or 16 analogue outputs. Both cards are compatible with S-Series, Quantum Range, SD12, Orange Box and 4REA4.
Main Features
- 16 analogue inputs
- 2 x 25 way “D” connectors
- Compatible with S-Series, Quantum Range, SD12, Orange Box and 4REA4
DMI-AES
This card provides 16 Inputs (8 pairs) and 16 outputs (8 pairs) on 2 x 25 way “D” connectors. All AES inputs are provided with sample rate conversion (SRC) by default. All AES outputs are synchronised to the mixer system clock.
Developed by the Audio Engineering Society (AES) and the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), this digital audio format was originally developed in 1985 and was the first professional digital audio format to gain widespread acceptance. There have been several revisions over the years. Also known as AES3 or IEC-60958 Type I, the data protocol includes up to two channels of up to 24-bit audio running at sample rates up to 96 kHz.
Multi-channel digital audio formats such as MADI have become popular, but AES3 is still a very useful format to distribute stereo signals (such as L/R mixer output) or to integrate stereo signal processors such as reverbs.
The DMI-AES provides 16 Inputs (8 pairs) and 16 outputs (8 pairs) on 2 x 25 way “D” connectors. All AES inputs are provided with sample rate conversion (SRC) by default. All AES outputs are synchronised to the mixer system clock.
Main Features
- 2 x 25 way “D” connectors

As a simple solution to expanding the local i/o of the S-Series, DiGiCo offer the DMI-ADC and the DMI-DAC. Both use 2 x 25 way “D” connectors to add either 16 analogue inputs or 16 analogue outputs. Both cards are compatible with S-Series, Quantum Range, SD12, Orange Box and 4REA4.
Main Features
- 16 analogue outputs
- 2 x 25 way “D” connectors

DMI-MADI-C
This card can be used to connect another DiGiCo device that uses RJ45 Standard MADI (64 channels in and out) at 48KHz or 96KHz or an SD Series DiGiCo Rack with the appropriate connector (D-Rack, D2-Rack)
MADI (Multichannel Audio Digital Interface) is arguably one of the most popular protocols for transmitting high channel counts in professional audio. This is partially due to its ease of use, and the ability for cables to be run long lengths with minimal signal loss. Originally only capable of transmitting 56 channels, MADI is now capable of transmitting up to 64 channels.
DiGiCo offers two MADI DMI cards, each with different connector types. Both the MADI-B (BNC) and the MADI-C (RJ45) cards can be used to connect up to 64 channels of audio in and out at both 48kHz and 96kHz. At 48kHz, the B connection can be used as a redundant audio stream. Should the A stream fail during use, the B stream will seamlessly take over. At 96kHz, the B connection must be connected to provide the full channel count.
Main Features
- RJ45 connection
- 64 channels in and out at 48kHz and 96kHz
- Redundancy if working at 48kHz
- Only for use with DiGiCo audio over Cat5 devices
- Internal switches to determine whether connected to a console or a rack
- Compatible with S-Series, Quantum Range, SD12, Orange Box and 4REA4
DMI-MADI-B
This card can be used to connect a Standard MADI stream (64 channels in and out) at 48KHz or 96KHz or an SD Series DiGiCo Rack with the appropriate connector (D2-Rack, SD-Rack, SD-MINIRack)

DMI-DANTE
This card provides 64 input and 64 output channels at 48KHz and 32 input and 32 output channels at 96KHz. It is provided with Primary and Secondary (backup) Gigabit Ethercon ports for connection to the Dante network.
Audio over IP is becoming more and more sought after, due to the fact that it works over a standard IP network and can be sent over pre-installed infrastructure. Developed by Audinate in 2006, Dante provides uncompressed, low latency, multi-channel digital audio over IP and is a popular choice of protocol.
DiGiCo offer a Dante interface that allows 64 channels in and 64 channels out at 48kHz, and 32 channels in and out at 96kHz. The DMI-DANTE has a Primary and a Secondary port, both of which are Ethercon ports. The card has two modes that can be changed in Dante Controller. In Switched Mode, the ports are switched together. In redundant mode, the ports work as a redundant pair with separate IP addresses so that if the primary connection fails, the secondary connection will take over.
Main Features
- 2 Ethercon ports
- Switched mode switches the ports together
- Redundant mode allows the ports to work as a redundant pair
- 64 channels in and 64 channels out at 48kHz
- 32 channels in and 32 channels out at 96kHz
- Compatible with S-Series, Quantum Range, SD12, Orange Box and 4REA4
