The MixRack  is the heart of the system, a network controlled mixer in a rack with the DSP and audio I/O built in.

Control is via TCP/IP Ethernet.  Audio may be sent to/from the Surface and other locations via the Port A digital network.  All MixRacks feature the fully configurable iDR-64 RackExtra DSP mix engine processing 64 input channels, 32 mixes and 8FX with their returns providing up to 72 sources feeding the mix.  All provide the Port B 64 channel bi-directional digital audio interface for digital mic splitting and system expansion.

6 MixRack
versions are available.  All provide 64x32 DSP. They differ only in modularity and number of physical input and output sockets.
