Palmer RIVER lahn – professional Dante 2x2 audio interface for seamless integration

If you work with modern Dante®-based audio systems, you need a solution that enables smooth integration of analog equipment into a digital environment. Palmer RIVER lahn is a compact yet highly efficient 2x2 audio interface that allows bidirectional signal conversion – from analog to Dante® and back. This means you can easily connect microphones, mixers, or amplifiers to an audio-over-IP network while maintaining excellent sound quality and full control over your signal.

Key features and functionality

The device offers two inputs and two outputs, making it highly flexible for both fixed installations and mobile setups. It supports both microphone and line-level signals, allowing transmission to a Dante® network or receiving digital signals and converting them back to analog. Each channel features adjustable gain and 48 V phantom power, making it ideal for use with condenser microphones.

Bridging analog and digital audio worlds

Modern sound systems increasingly rely on Dante® technology, which enables audio transmission over Ethernet with minimal latency. This allows you to build scalable and flexible audio systems without complex cabling. This interface provides a fast and reliable way to integrate traditional analog gear into a digital network, significantly expanding system capabilities and simplifying signal management.

With compatibility for Dante® Domain Manager and AES67, the unit is suitable for professional broadcast environments, live sound applications, and AV installations. Easy front-panel configuration and intuitive operation ensure that even advanced settings are simple to manage.

Real-world applications

This interface is perfect for a wide range of environments – from recording studios and live sound systems to conference setups and broadcast installations. It enables long-distance audio transmission without quality loss, which is essential in modern audio-over-IP systems. Its compact design and rugged construction make it equally suitable for rack mounting or mobile use.
