Allen & Heath dLive S Class
- Harmony User Interface. The single or twin 12” capacitive touchscreens on the dLive consoles feel instantly familiar, responding to every pinch, swipe, drag and drop exactly how you’d expect them to
- Transparent Workflow. The dLive layout is fully customisable, allowing the user to create a mixing interface that matches their own mental map of the show
- Built To Endure. All dLive consoles have been designed to deliver the optimal balance between strength and weight, employing higher grade metal on the sides and folded steel at key points for added rigidity
The Allen & Heath dLive S Class was created for professional touring, broadcast and premium installations and has earned its reputation for audio quality and robustness in the most complex and high-profile applications. As an Allen & Heath S Class Partner we have access to its flagship dLive consoles with all the technical support needed for a system of its calibre.

dLive is Allen & Heath’s flagship digital mixing system.
There is something inherently thrilling about live sound. The immediacy of the direct interaction between the performers and the audience, the potential for anything to happen, the need to get it right first time – this is what makes live mixing so addictive. As the demands for more and more I/O and increasingly complex systems grow, there’s a danger of concentrating on the technology rather than the performance. The design goal for dLive S Class was to create the ultimate mixing system, with plenty of processing and flexibility to handle the most demanding live scenarios, while at the same time giving the engineer intuitive tools to comfortably keep all that power at their fingertips, freeing them to focus on the live mixing experience.
dLive’s phenomenally powerful XCVI Core, DEEP processing suite and Harmony UI make the most sophisticated mixing challenges feel elegantly simple. From seasoned audio professionals to new recruits, dLive has been crafted to allow the operator to keep their focus on the live mixing experience, not on the mixer.
The power of dLive emanates from the XCVI Core – pioneered by the Allen & Heath R&D team using next generation FPGA technology, with 36 parallel virtual processing cores generating enough power for 160×64 channels of processing at 96kHz sampling rate. Six parallel mixing engines within the Core calculate over 10,000 cross points per sample, while the FPGA router has capacity for 3,000 x 3,000 audio paths. The massive power of XCVI (25 billion operations per second) allows dLive to deliver 128 full processing inputs and 16 stereo FX returns, a configurable 64 bus architecture, variable bit depth for ultimate precision and noise performance, a virtually infinite mix headroom thanks to a 96bit accumulator, and class-leading latency at an ultra-low 0.7ms.
