Midas DP48 Dual 48-Channel Personal Monitor Mixer

Two Independent IEM Mixes. One Flagship Monitor Mixer.

The Midas DP48 is a flagship 48-channel personal monitor mixer designed to deliver total sonic authority and freedom to live performers, touring musicians, worship teams, and studio engineers. Featuring dual independent mix engines, a single DP48 allows two musicians to craft, balance, and fine-tune their own distinct stereo monitor mixes simultaneously without compromise. Whether you are performing on stadium stages or tracking in the studio, the DP48 replaces cluttered floor wedges with pristine, studio-grade in-ear monitoring tailored precisely to your ear.

Dual-Engine Architecture for Effortless Two-Player Control
Engineered with two complete mix processors (Mix A and Mix B), the DP48 doubles your monitoring capacity from a single compact unit. Each performer gets dedicated control over Output Volume, Group Level, and My Group Level, along with independent 3-band EQ, peak limiting, and studio-quality reverb settings. This dual-engine setup lets two band members share a single personal mixer while enjoying completely custom mix balances tailored to their specific hearing preferences and earphone types.

Ambient Stage Blending with Smart Automatic Ducking
In-ear monitors can leave musicians feeling isolated from the energy of the room and audience. The DP48 solves this with a built-in stereo ambience microphone that injects natural stage sound into your monitor mix at the touch of a button. An intelligent automatic ducking function dynamically attenuates the ambience feed while the band plays to maintain a crystal-clear mix, opening back up during quiet passages or between songs for seamless on-stage communication.

Instant SD Recording, Preset Sharing, and AES50 Console Sync
Capture rehearsals and live performances in high definition directly to SD card with built-in mix-minus functionality for backing track practice. The DP48 integrates seamlessly with Midas and Behringer digital consoles over AES50, delivering sub-millisecond 0.48 ms latency, remote Power over Ethernet (PoE) via Midas HUB4, and automatic channel name and colour syncing straight from the desk surface. Musicians can save complete mix presets to SD card, enabling instant setup on any DP48 worldwide.
