Audix M3DK Tri-Element Hanging Microphone Kit with DN43 Dante AES67 Microphone Interface

The M3DK is a convenient kit that pairs the Audix M3 hanging ceiling microphone with the Audix DN43 Dante | AES67 microphone interface, providing a simple to install, network-ready way to stream Audix audio performance through Ethernet networks.

The M3 is an innovative, tri-element hanging microphone designed for applications where aesthetics, sound quality, and ease of installation are critical. The frequency response and polar pattern of its three phase-coherent hypercardioid capsules are tailored for voice clarity and rejection of extraneous noise.

The Audix DN43 interface features one microphone port engineered exclusively for the Audix M3 tri-element microphone and one port for Audix RJ45-equipped single-element microphones. Each channel has selectable, independently controlled pre-amp gain, as well as low- and high-pass filters. It features balanced audio inputs with RFI filtering and delivers high-fidelity 24-bit, 48KHz audio.

Dante Made Simple – by Audix

The M3DK is designed exclusively for the Audix Dante | AES67 Integrated Microphone System, which delivers high-quality audio and all microphone functions — including on-off contact closure and LED status indicators — through a single CAT5 - CAT7 cable with RJ45 connections at both interface and microphone. This simple configuration eliminates wiring errors, accelerates installation, and reduces cost. And like all Audix microphones in the system, the gain structure is optimized for its intended placement, providing quality audio at the DSP. The result is true plug-and-play installation.
