SAFETY RULES

• This DD12 must be powered exclusively by an earth-connected mains socket in electrical

networks compliant to the IEC 364 or similar local rules. It is absolutely vital that the user

veriﬁes this fundamental safety requirement. If you are in any doubt, get the installation

checked by qualiﬁed personnel before use.

• The means of disconnection from the mains is the Neutrik® PowerCON TRUE1. We strongly

recommend that you power the DD12 by a professionally installed mains supply with an

easily accessible on/off switch or circuit breaker. A comprehensive mains distribution

system with circuit breakers is available from Martin Audio.

• Before powering the DD12 via the Neutrik® PowerCON TRUE1 connector, make sure that

the unit is supplied with the correct mains operating voltage:

• 100 – 240 V, 50 – 60 Hz

• The DD12 power section is protected by two fuses:

• F1: (T3,15A L 250V) in the power ampliﬁer

• F2: (F 4A L 250V) in the auxiliary (DSP) power supply

• Do not use this unit if the electrical power cord is frayed or broken.

• Do not remove the cover. Removing the cover will expose you to potentially dangerous

voltages.

• When not ﬁtted with the weatherproof cowl (Martin Audio Pt No ASF15019), weatherproof

grille (Martin Audio Pt No HAG01145), or not used with mains connector/cords rated to at

least IP24, the DD12 must not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects ﬁlled

with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.

RÈGLES DE SÉCURITÉ

• La DD12 doit être alimentée exclusivement via une prise connectée à la terre dans un

réseau électrique conforme aux normes locales ou de type IEC364. Il est absolument vital

que l’utilisateur s’assure de cette exigence de sécurité. Si vous avez le moindre doute,

faites vériﬁer l’installation par une personne qualiﬁée.

• La déconnection au réseau électrique s’effectue à l’aide des Neutrik® PowerCON TRUE1.

Nous recommandons fortement que l’alimentation de la DD12 soit assurée par un

branchement professionnel comportant un interrupteur ON/OFF facilement accessible ou

un court circuit. Un système de distribution de courant avec disjoncteurs est disponible

chez Martin Audio.

• Avant de mettre sous tension la DD12 avec un connecteur Neutrik® PowerCON TRUE1,

assurez-vous que l’enceinte est conﬁgurée au bon voltage :

• 100 – 240 V, 50 – 60 Hz

• La section d’alimentation de la DD12 est protégée par 2 fusibles :

• F1: (T3,15A L 250V) dans l’ampliﬁcateur de puissance

• F2: (F 4A L 250V) dans la source de courant auxiliaire (DSP)

• Ne pas utiliser cet appareil si le cordon d’alimentation est usé ou endommagé.

• Ne pas retirer le capot de protection. Retirer le capot peut vous exposer à des niveaux de

tensions très dangereux.

• Lorsqu’elle n’est pas utilisée avec la housse de protection waterproof (Martin Audio

Pt No ASF15019), la grille de protection waterproof (Martin Audio Pt No HAG01445) ou

n’utilisée pas avec des connecteurs ou cordons au minimum de classe IP24, la DD12 ne

doit pas être exposée à des éclaboussures et aucun contenants à liquide, comme des vases

ou bouteilles, ne doivent être posés sur l’appareils.

The DD12 combines Class D ampliﬁcation, powerful on-board DSP and networking capability

with Martin Audio’s exclusive Differential Dispersion™ horn technology. The DD12 can deliver

the highest quality audio, with consistent coverage, throughout the audience.

The DD12 can be used as a main PA speaker, either stand-alone or as part of a larger system

employing other Martin Audio system components. Its cabinet design also makes it ideal for use

as a wedge monitor.

This User Guide provides a detailed explanation of the DD12’s features and options. Please take

the time to read through the Guide even if you are experienced with other Martin Audio products.

Thank you again for placing your conﬁdence in Martin Audio products.

DD12 User Guide V1.0

DD12 USER GUIDE

OVERVIEW

The DD12 is an active full-range loudspeaker with a 12” bass driver and a 1” HF driver, driven

by an integral, speciﬁcally-designed, two-channel ampliﬁer with comprehensive DSP.

High power Class D, high efﬁciency ampliﬁer channels are employed, incorporating individual

comprehensive digital signal processing. The combination of built-in ampliﬁcation and DSP

offers a high level of control in a compact, lightweight loudspeaker. With the aid of Vu-Net

network control software, outstanding levels of consistent, high quality audio can be delivered.

The DD12 is intended to be used either singly or in multiples as a stand-alone, plug-and-play

system, or as additional elements in larger systems. Optimised venue push button presets are

accessible via the rear panel.

The DD12 has audio inputs that can be either standard balanced analogue or AES/EBU digital.

(AES/EBU only available when running a system under Vu-Net control.) A parallel connection

is available to daisy-chain between cabinets. The DD12 features network control via a U-Net

interface, which carries all control data for the on-board DSP. U-Net connections are made via a

pair of very high quality, rugged 8-way push-pull latching connectors rated for high speed data

applications.

Mains connection is via a Neutrik® PowerCON TRUE1 connector.

Each channel of DSP comprises extensive processing optimised for the driver being controlled:

this includes delay, parametric EQ, high and low pass ﬁlters, IIR all-pass ﬁlters, FIR low pass

ﬁlter and EQ, gain, phase and limiting. In addition there are user-accessible parameters including

delay, 10 bands of parametric EQ, high pass ﬁltering, gain, phase and muting, when under

Vu-Net control.

The DD12 has a variety of rigging options, designed with Martin Audio’s considerable experience

in system deployment. This allows phenomenally quick system rigging and de-rigging, particularly

because there are no ampliﬁer racks to set up and break down.

The DD12 is available in both Standard (non-IP rated) and IP24 Rated versions. (Note: The

IP rating is only valid for the IP24 Rated version when the DD12 is used in portrait mode,

i.e., upright.) Alternatively the Standard version may be upgraded to IP24 rating by ﬁtting the

optional weatherproof cowl (Part No. ASF15019) and weatherproof grille (Part No. HAG01145).

The IP24-rated version is suitable for outdoor use in virtually any weather condition.

Note: The DD12 must be returned to either Martin Audio or an approved dealer to have the

weatherproof cowl and grille ﬁtted to meet the IP24 speciﬁcation.

Note: To attain IP24 rating, all connectors and cord sets must also meet the IP24 rating –

available as accessories from Martin Audio.
