Features

Extensive connectivity for modern setups

The VDI port lets you connect a Variax® guitar directly, without an intermediate box. You gain simplicity and control, especially if you often change models or tunings. The L6 LINK™ output offers a perfect link to Powercab® speakers, handy for creating a modular, scalable rig.

Studio-ready digital outputs

Stereo AES/EBU output makes it easy to integrate into a professional digital chain. You send a clean, stable signal to a console or high-end interface. The 8-channel optical output lets you add returns, multichannel recordings or an advanced monitoring system without perceptible latency.

Simple installation thanks to Nexus™

A single Cat6 cable is all you need to connect the Expand D10 to your Helix Stadium. The Nexus™ protocol ensures fast, reliable communication, useful live where you need to install quickly and error-free. You keep your setup clean, scalable and easy to troubleshoot.

Designed for professional environments

The D10 operates without an external power supply, reducing the risk of failure and the number of cables. Its digital transmission guarantees a stable signal, ideal for touring, mobile studios or technical control rooms requiring a robust installation.
