Midas MDS-DP48 Description

The DP48 redefines personal monitoring by allowing two performers to share one compact unit while maintaining full control over their own mix. Each user can configure up to 12 stereo groups using the 48 available channels, giving musicians the freedom to separate instruments, vocals, or stems to their preference. Individual EQ, reverb, and compression can be applied to each group, while the Mix A and B outputs feature their own EQ, limiter, and reverb controls—ideal for adapting to different headphones or in-ear monitors. Setup is fast and flexible thanks to AES50 connectivity with Midas or compatible systems. A built-in SD card recorder adds the ability to capture rehearsals or performances directly from the monitor mix. The DP48 also features stereo ambience microphones, making it easy to blend in stage or room sound as needed. Each function is accessible through a simple user interface with dedicated controls and a central SELECT/EDIT knob for parameter adjustments. Whether you’re a vocalist looking for clarity, a drummer needing a complex multi-mic mix, or a front-of-house engineer configuring multiple performer setups, the MDS-DP48 makes custom monitoring fast, efficient, and fully independent.
