The Rio3224-D2 and Rio1608-D2 are Yamaha's second-generation Dante AD/DA stageboxes, providing 112 dB dynamic range and digital gain compensation for console-to-rack recall. They are fully compatible with CL, QL, RIVAGE PM and DM7 consoles over Dante Primary/Secondary networking.

The D2 range introduced a dual-redundant power supply option and improved preamp specifications over the original D series, and remains a widely deployed stagebox in touring and installed-sound systems globally.

Key Features

D-PRE Preamps

D-PRE discrete Class-A microphone preamps on all XLR inputs deliver 112 dB dynamic range and −128 dBu EIN, consistent with CL, QL and RIVAGE PM console expectations.

Dante Primary/Secondary

etherCON Primary/Secondary ports provide full redundant Dante audio transport, protecting the system from single-link failure in live touring environments.

Digital Gain Compensation

Gain changes made at the console are automatically compensated in the stagebox, maintaining consistent headroom across the signal chain during live operation.

Redundant PSU Option

Optional dual power supply covers installations where the rack must remain operational through mains or PSU faults.
