Arrakis Systems DARC Virtual Console Software Bundle (8 Channels)

The Arrakis Systems DARC Virtual Console Software is a powerful vitrtual console that can be operated either by Dante AoIP or via your favorite ASIO soundcard on a Windows-based computer. With support for up to 8 microphone inputs, you have access to three stereo outputs, phone and talkback channels, and more. The software can be controlled remotely via an internet connection. It pairs well with touchscreens for more flexible setups and is designed to be scalable, fitting both small and larger studio configurations.

Console for Any Studio

DARC is an intuitive virtual console that can operate under Dante AoIP or your favorite ASIO soundcard. With flexible routing, tools, and more, you have access to a complete suite of studio-grade features.

8 Microphone Inputs Available

Up to 8 microphone input channels are available for routing to various destinations. Whether running locally with your ASIO soundcard or over a Dante network, the mic inputs are at your disposal.

Dynamic Source Select

DARC allows you to connect up to 64 mono inputs. From the console view, select which sources you want to be assigned. Every source has its own label, audio level, and color assignment.

User Profiles

Up to eight user profiles can be created, for quickly switching between different shows and templates.

Talkback and Phone Lines

Along with talkback functions like on- and off-line send, up to eight phone channels can be used to wire telephone lines into your consoles. From there, you can customize how you integrate various lines into your studio.

Output Buses

DARC comes with three output buses that can be used in various ways:

Use the cue function to play audio off-air through your monitor, cue, or headphones.

Mic channels automatically mute the speaker outputs and play audio through the headphones. This is great for silent recording settings.

Activate talkback functions in a control room/studio setting.

Great for Podcasting

Because channels one through four allow for individual channel post-fader playback, you can record each of your input sources for use in podcasts, and still easily edit your recordings later.

Included Simple IP 16A

With this bundle, you get one Simple IP 16A, a powerful AoIP audio interface than can easily connect to DARC via RJ45 connections. This interface can also connect to your existing network switch, while being managed via the Dante Controller software.
