Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Tio1608-D2 is Yamaha’s rackmountable Dante I/O rack for placing 16 mic/line inputs and eight line outputs where they are needed in a TF-series or DM3 system. Compatible consoles can handle its gain remotely, and TF and DM3 models provide automatic configuration functions after the rack’s front-panel settings are set. The unit supports 96 kHz operation and offers primary and secondary EtherCON ports. For remote HA control, use the Primary port.
Strong match
Who this is for
- TF-series or DM3 systems needing 16 mic/line inputs and eight line outputs in a rack.
- Dante systems using compatible-console remote gain control and automatic configuration functions.
- TF-series systems expanding to as many as three Tio1608-D2 units with the optional NY64-D card.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Remote HA control through the Secondary network port; it is available only through Primary.
- DM3 systems requiring more than one Tio1608-D2 unit.
