Behringer adds 5.1 surround capability to the Danalog DDX3216

Behringer announces the availability of a Dolby 5.1 surround update for the Danalog DDX3216 digital console. The surround update transforms the DDX3216 into a full-fledged surround mixer with extensive control possibilities. The software surround upgrade is available free of charge. The software upgrade features surround panning on the desired channel via a second Pan display page, live "movements" of selected sound source (channels) through the surround space, storage of surround pan/automating via Snapshot and Dynamic Automation and new MIDI control possibilities for expanded surround parameters on channels 1-32 and FX returns 1-8. The surround mix and conventional mix can be run simultaneously, while additional update features such as 100 markers (previously 10) and an opportunity to activate the Time Counter Relative at the MIDI setup page round out the Danalgs's new feature set.
