Third-generation Dante AD/DA I/O racks with improved dynamic range (120 dB), AES/EBU monitoring outputs and streamlined control, compatible with RIVAGE PM and DM7 systems.
The Rio3224-D3 and Rio1608-D3 are Yamaha's third-generation Dante AD/DA I/O racks, delivering a 120 dB dynamic range and improved signal transparency over their D2 predecessors. They are the preferred stagebox solution for RIVAGE PM and DM7 systems, supporting up to 32 mic/line inputs (Rio3224-D3) or 16 inputs (Rio1608-D3) with full recall over Dante.
Both models add AES/EBU monitoring outputs to the D2 feature set, providing a digital I/O path directly from the rack without an expansion card. Dual redundant power supplies (field-installable) and etherCON locking network connectors suit demanding touring and permanent installation environments.
Third-generation AD/DA converters achieve 120 dB dynamic range, a measurable improvement over D2 models (112 dB), ensuring the I/O rack is never the limiting factor in a high-end signal path.
Integrated AES/EBU digital outputs provide a direct digital feed to power amplifiers or speaker processors without an additional expansion card or outboard conversion.
etherCON Primary/Secondary Dante ports support full audio redundancy, protecting the network audio path against single-cable failures during live events.
Field-installable dual redundant power supply option eliminates the rack as a single point of failure in mission-critical permanent installations.
