The original D-BOX is trusted in project and professional studios worldwide for its practical combination of analog summing and monitoring. The D-BOX+ advances this legacy with an upgraded summing mixer, expanded speaker outputs, mastering-grade D/A conversion, Bluetooth connectivity, remote operation, and more. It delivers the cohesive “glued-together” sound engineers love and lets you hear your mixes with greater clarity. The D-BOX+ is a powerful, modern centerpiece for any studio.
Dangerous Audio pioneered standalone analog summing in 1999 with the original 2-BUS, and later brought the technology to project studios with the first D-BOX. The D-BOX+ continues this tradition with an improved 8-channel summing mixer that increases headroom, depth, and clarity. Expect tighter lows, more detailed mids, open highs, and precise panning. The D-BOX+ is purpose-built to elevate your mixes.
Acting like a large-format console’s center section, the D-BOX+ provides routing and switching for both analog and digital sources. You can access five input sources: analog stereo, the onboard 8-channel summing mixer, USB, AES/SPDIF, and Bluetooth wireless streaming. It also includes three stereo speaker outputs with programmable mono and sub options — and you can even assign the third output for a dedicated subwoofer with independent level and mute control.
Whether you're placing microphones, adjusting EQ, or finalizing a master, the D-BOX+ ensures you hear every detail accurately. Its advanced clock stabilization, premium converters, and audiophile-grade analog circuitry provide mastering-level clarity you can rely on. Dual high-quality headphone amplifiers deliver clean, powerful, and accurate monitoring for precise listening and quality control.
The D-BOX+ unlocks your studio’s full potential with comprehensive routing, three independent speaker outputs, and a programmable selector. Additional features include an onboard talkback microphone with push-button control and full remote operation of major functions via the free D-BOX+ app for macOS, Windows, iOS, and Android. It’s truly designed to be the heart of any studio setup.
The Dangerous D-BOX+ is a ground-up dramatic redesign of the award-winning controller and summing mixer that delivered superior analog sound and versatile studio control in a single rack space. Its newly engineered 8-channel summing mixer and upgraded D/A converter offer the bold, clear sonic character Dangerous Music is known for. Added features such as Bluetooth connectivity and an intuitive remote-control app introduce a modern, cutting-edge workflow that puts the D-BOX+ far ahead of its competition. As with all Dangerous Music gear, the D-BOX+ is proudly crafted in the USA to exacting audiophile standards.
The D-BOX+ functions like the center section of a large-format console, offering extensive routing and switching for both analog and digital sources. Choose from five input sources — analog stereo, analog summing, USB, AES/SPDIF, or Bluetooth — with a single button press. Three stereo speaker outputs can be configured for mono or subwoofer integration, and Output 3 can also serve as an independent sub feed with its own level and mute control.
Tracking and mixing sessions often demand separate monitoring options for engineers and performers. The D-BOX+ delivers with two fully independent monitoring sections: Control Room and Headphones. Any of the five input sources can feed either monitoring path instantly. Checking exactly what your artist hears in their headphones is as simple as switching sources.
The new D-BOX+ Bluetooth app frees you from the studio chair, allowing complete control from any modern phone, tablet, or computer. Adjust monitoring sources, toggle talkback, control levels, switch speakers, and more — all remotely. Whether you're in the live room, on the couch, or down the hallway, the D-BOX+ app gives you total mobility and flexibility.
Great sessions demand great headphone monitoring, and the D-BOX+ delivers with two powerful, ultra-clean headphone amplifiers. Engineers often rely on these amps for critical quality control listening. Routing is flexible: connect from the front or rear, and select any input source for either headphone amp directly from the front panel or the remote app.
Dangerous Music’s D/A converters are trusted in world-class tracking, mixing, and mastering environments. With advanced clock stabilization, premium chipsets, and a pristine analog signal path, these converters provide unmatched clarity and musicality. The D-BOX+ includes three independent D/A converters for USB, AES/SPDIF, and Bluetooth sources.
The D-BOX+ offers fast, low-latency USB audio performance. macOS users enjoy seamless driverless connectivity, while Windows users benefit from robust and reliable driver support. No complicated setup — just plug in and start creating.
Studio communication shouldn’t slow you down. The onboard talkback mic meets one of the studio’s most essential needs, and with the D-BOX+ app, you can trigger talkback from anywhere. Whether you're in the live room or assisting performers from a distance, communication becomes effortless and efficient.
Dangerous summing mixers are renowned for enhancing mix depth, punch, panning precision, and stereo width. Whether routing subgroups or effects returns, the D-BOX+ analog summing delivers unmatched dimension and sonic integrity. Mixing is an art, and this summing engine helps you create your best work.
