6-CHANNEL MIXER

The built-in 6-channel mixer allows you to connect and mix a variety of sources, from microphones and high-impedance instruments to line-level signals and wired – or wireless – players.

INTEGRIERTE EFFEKTE

Für die Kanäle 1 + 2 steht ein 2-Band-EQ sowie Reverb zur Verfügung – jeweils individuell regelbar und mit variablen Presets (Reverb) für unterschiedliche Räume und Umgebungen. Auf diese Weise erhalten sowohl Instrumente als auch Vocals einen großen, professionellen Sound.

INTEGRATED EFFECTS

A 2-band EQ and reverb are available for channels 1 + 2 – each individually adjustable and with variable presets (reverb) for different rooms and environments. This gives both instruments and vocals a big, professional sound.

DIGITAL INPUTS

Digital SPDIF and Bluetooth connections make the DAVE G4X Series even more versatile, allowing for easy connection of CD and MP3 players, TVs, smartphones, and more.

OPTIMISED CLUSTER MODE

Selectable mode presets give each setup its optimised sound: a classic 2.1 setup with two satellites to the left and right of the subwoofer, or an interference-free cluster setup with two closely spaced satellites on a T-stand above the subwoofer. The DAVE G4X can do both at the touch of a button!

OPTIMIERTER CLUSTER-MODUS

Über die wählbaren Mode-Presets erhält jedes Setup seinen optimierten Sound: klassischer 2.1-Aufbau mit zwei Satelliten links und rechts vom Subwoofer oder ein interferenzfreies Cluster-Setup mit zwei eng benachbarten Satelliten auf einem T-Stativ über dem Subwoofer. Die DAVE G4X kann beides auf Knopfdruck!

HOMOGENEOUS DISPERSION

The DAVE G4X Series’ inner workings are as impressive as they are audible: the combination of a new HF compression driver (DAVE 12/15/18), new waveguides for the tweeters and woofers and more ensures precise and even dispersion without colouration at the edges.

WHY G4X? - MORE THAN JUST AN UPDATE

THE NEW GENERATION OF DAVE

The DAVE G4X Series delivers more power and sound – with noticeably less weight. With their new, more robust design, which includes durable polyurea coating, the DAVE G4X models 10,12 and 15 are each several kilograms lighter than the previous series, making transport and handling much easier.

Description

Whether you're a DJ, a live combo, a solo entertainer or at your next party, you need an all-round PA that delivers professional sound for a variety of applications. Also on your list of essentials: a wide range of connections and accessory options for fast and flexible on-site setup, and maximum reliability. In a nutshell, your PA has to perform at its best around the clock.

With the DAVE 18 G4X, your search is over. This powered compact PA - which is made up of an 18" subwoofer and two 8" satellites (total power: 4000 W peak) - doesn't just deliver a new, modern design with numerous handling optimisations. It also offers an integrated 6-channel mixer with all the important input options you could ever need. This allows you to create a wide variety of setups and combinations of instruments, vocals and audio sources - both wired and wireless - thanks to integrated Bluetooth for easy streaming via a smartphone or tablet.

The first two channels of the mixer are designed as channel strips. Here, you can connect either a microphone, a high-impedance instrument - such as a guitar and/or bass - or line-level sources. A 2-band EQ for bass and treble, as well as an adjustable reverb with three presets (small, large, plate), are available for shaping the sound further. Channels 3 and 4 are designed as stereo line inputs, and are suitable for keyboards, synthesizers, drum machines or small electronic drum kits.

The DAVE 18 G4X becomes even more versatile when you use the digital SPDIF stereo input or the Bluetooth connection to expand your performance setup with a media player, computer or smartphone, which you can use to play and control backing tracks, sound effects or music during your breaks. The inputs (channels 5 and 6) can also be used for a karaoke system, or simply to connect a TV device in the sports bar for an impressive sound experience.

Speaking of impressive sound, the DAVE 18 G4X has been completely redesigned and developed from scratch. This not only benefits instruments and music, but also speech intelligibility when the PA is used for speech reinforcement. The acoustic concepts include new compression drivers and waveguides for a homogeneous and directional dispersion, as well as FIR filters and state-of-the-art DSP technology for a transparent, colourless sound that brings the DAVE Series to a whole new level. The subwoofer, for example, is equipped with a larger voice coil and an optimised bass reflex system to reduce air flow noise to a minimum.

The DAVE 18 G4X is predestined for flexible use. The selectable mode presets (for classic stereo use or set up with two closely spaced satellites on a T-stand above the subwoofer) contribute to this - the DAVE G4X is convincing in terms of sound in all configurations. For example, the Cluster Mode preset allows the interference-free coupling of two satellites by means of a special M/S split and reproduction of the stereo signal for more headroom and directivity.

LD Systems has also thought of all common applications when it comes to accessories. These range from custom-fit bags and a castor board to the T-stand mentioned above.
