NAMM 2024: LD Systems adds MAUI models
- Details
The MAUI G3 MIX series combines all components for flexible live use: mixing console, effects, dynamics processing, DSP controller, power amplifiers and speakers. The integrated digital 6-channel mixer offers four XLR/line combo inputs for connecting microphones, line devices or high-impedance instruments (Hi-Z available on channels 1 + 2), supplemented by a stereo Bluetooth connection on channels 5 + 6.
The mixer settings can be adjusted manually via the control element on the rear of the subwoofer, as well as fully remote-controlled. For this purpose, LD Systems offers a free app (iOS/Android) for smartphones and tablets, which provides full access to the mixer channels, monitor channels and the comprehensive effects section with reverb, delay and dynamics tools. A parametric 5-band EQ is available. Depending on requirements, the complete app control of the mixer can be operated in Easy or Expert mode.
The MAUI 28 G3 MIX is based on a 12'' subwoofers with 2,060 W (peak) and two aluminium column elements with twelve 3.5'' midrange drivers, which are designed as cardioid loudspeakers and enable controlled sound dispersion. The MAUI 11 G3 MIX uses two 8'' subwoofers with 1,460 W (peak) and six 3.5'' midrange drivers. Both models feature phase plugs in front of the midrange drivers which, in combination with the two 1'' tweeters, ensure even sound distribution with constant horizontal dispersion (120° x 30°).
Equipped with the latest DynX DSP generation, the subwoofers offer extended and distortion-free reproduction even at maximum volume down to 37 Hz (MAUI 28 G3 MIX) or 39 Hz (MAUI 11 G3 MIX). When using a second subwoofer, the bass range can be operated in cardioid configuration at the touch of a button (preset).
Thanks to Bluetooth 5.0, the MAUI G3 MIX becomes a versatile sound system for wireless playback of background music and other content. Transport is also simple as usual, while the improved, invisible connectors between the elements ensure increased stability during assembly.
