Eight-channel

The Dugan Speech System™ provides automatic mixing for eight live mics.
The Dugan Music System™ offers automatic downward expansion to help reduce
feedback and bleed in live music performances (i.e., opera, background vocals).
Thresholds are adjusted automatically by monitoring ambient noise levels.
Dugan Gain Limiting™ monitors the number-of-open-mics (NOM) and adjusts
the master gain to prevent feedback or ambient noise build-up. Dugan Gain
Limiting should be used with the Dugan Music System to reduce feedback and
noise. It can perform the same functions when mics are switched on and off
manually.
Linking creates one large automatic mixing system with multiple Dugan units.
An internal mix bus matrix routes processed or unprocessed inputs to four mix
bus outputs.
Unprocessed outputs are provided: analog inputs are mirrored at the digital out-
put, and vice versa. This provides convenient pre-processing signals for multitrack
recording.

Twelve-channel

The Dugan Speech System™ provides automatic mixing for twelve live mics.
Linking creates one large automatic mixing system with multiple Dugan units.

Sixteen-channel

The Dugan Speech System™ provides automatic mixing for sixteen live mics.
This is a digital connection that uses both the AUD and LINK ADAT optical connectors.
