Allen & Heath RackUltra FX Card for dLive MixRacks
FPGA + ARM Processing
Combining Allen & Heath’s renowned FPGA technology with ARM processing, the RackUltra FX card opens dLive up to the next generation of onboard processing and effects.
The RackUltra FX Card, fitted as standard to all new MixRacks and available as an upgrade for existing MixRacks, adds 8 RackUltra FX engines – including dedicated stereo send and return channels plus PEQ and dynamics on each FX engines input and output – to any dLive system without consuming any of the platform’s existing busses, channels, RackExtra FX slots, or Audio Networking I/O ports.
Fits any dLive MixRack
Installs into the internal expansion slot on any existing dLive DM or CDM MixRack to enable use of the RackUltra FX Collection.
8 RackUltra FX Engines
Run any 8 FX from the RackUltra FX Collection, as sends or inserts, in addition to your existing 16 RackExtra FX units.
Dedicated Sends and Returns
The card adds 8 stereo RackUltra FX sends and returns that don’t eat into your standard mix bus config.
Built In PEQ and Dynamics
Compression, gating, expansion, ducking – all with sidechain – and 4-band PEQ on every FX input and output.
dLive V2.0 – Where FX and Workflow Innovation Sets the Scene
dLive V2.0 ushers in a new era of integrated creative FX and advanced workflow features, completely redefining what is possible in-the-mixer.
All New Cue List Management
dLive V2.0 delivers overhauled Cue List system, simplifying cue list creation with manual and auto renumbering options plus custom MIDI recall, designed for fast-moving performances, heavily automated shows, and theatre applications.
Trigger Multiple Functions With One SoftKey
The powerful new Actions feature makes complex automation easy, enabling functions across multiple channels, such as routing assignments and levels, ABCD inputs, processing and insert in/outs, and strip layout to be triggered via a single SoftKey press.
Mix Joins The Channel Library
The Channel Library has been extended to include Mix contributions, meaning channels can now be saved with all sends, processing and name/colour data included.

The RackUltra FX collection, powered by the RackUltra FX card, brings together 10 new algorithms that rival the most advanced plug-ins on the market. See full details here
