S21 Audio Console
The Digico S21 consists of a worksurface, an audio engine and a range of onboard inputs and outputs.
The S21 can be connected using optional DiGiCo DMI Cards to a variety of DiGiCo racks and other audio input/output devices. The console worksurface consists of two (2) sections that can be configured to control up to forty (40) mono or stereo input channels, ten (10) VCAs, sixteen (16) mono or stereo busses plus a Master buss and a ten (10) Input x eight (8) Output Matrix. The left and right sections have ten (10) assignable faders and ten (10) sets of assignable on-screen channel controls, the right hand section also has a dedicated Master fader and mute, a Master/Solo meter, a set of six (6) assignable encoder/switches and worksurface navigation controls The console's buss architecture is dynamic, and can support mono and stereo configurations. Multiple console setups can provide: Front of House and Monitoring with shared stage racks and gain tracking.
