Tascam MM-4D/IN-E Mic Line Input Dante Converter

Product Description

The TASCAM MM-4D/IN-E is a microphone and line input Dante network audio converter designed to bridge analog audio signals into a Dante-based digital audio network. It accepts mic-level and line-level analog inputs and transmits them over a standard Ethernet network using the Dante protocol, eliminating the need for long analog cable runs in professional audio installations. This unit is suited for fixed installation environments where analog sources must be integrated into a networked audio infrastructure. Audio engineers, systems integrators, and AV installation technicians are the primary trades who specify and deploy this device.

The MM-4D/IN-E fits into commercial and professional AV installations such as conference rooms, houses of worship, performance venues, broadcast facilities, and educational spaces. It is used wherever analog microphones or line-level sources need to feed a Dante audio network without a dedicated mixing console at the source location. The unit is sold individually and is intended for permanent rack or surface installation as part of a larger networked audio system.

Key Features

• Accepts both microphone-level and line-level analog audio inputs
• Converts analog signals to Dante network audio over standard Ethernet
• Eliminates long analog cable runs in distributed audio installations
• Designed for fixed installation in professional and commercial AV environments
• Sold as a single unit for flexible system scaling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style input converter for use in Dante-compatible networked audio systems requiring analog microphone or line input sources.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed AV systems integrator or audio technician familiar with Dante network audio configuration. Power down or disconnect all connected audio equipment before making analog input connections. Network configuration, including Dante channel routing, should be performed using Audinate Dante Controller software per the system design requirements. Follow applicable local electrical codes and the manufacturer installation documentation for mounting and network setup.
