The Vision Behind dMix128 and Violet Audio<\/h3>
\u00a0<\/div>

The Return to World-Class Audio Innovation with a global development team.<\/p>

With over 40 years of experience in the professional audio industry, veteran touring sound engineer and electronics designer Daniel Olesh is no stranger to innovation. From the launch of SM Pro Audio in 2000 with the full team of development engineers to the sale of its export arm to HARMAN in 2014\u2014contributing core technologies to Soundcraft, DBX, and AKG\u2014 then with a 2 year stint as CTO at Loud (Mackie) assisting in creating the technologies that helped sell the company to RODE, his impact on global audio manufacturing is unmistakable. Now, with a new chapter unfolding, Olesh and the long-standing team of collaborators are set to reclaim their place on the world stage.<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\n\t\tThe Birth of dMix128: Built on Legacy, Designed for the Future\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t

The dMix range of digital mixing consoles is not just another product line\u2014it is the result of decades of deep industry insight and proven innovation. Many in the industry are familiar with the Soundcraft Ui24R, a product still in wide use today. What\u2019s less known is that the underlying technology behind the Ui24R was originally developed in Australia by this very team over ten years ago.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\tFrom SM Pro to Violet Audio and DSPRO: A Proven Team\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t

The dMix project is being driven by Violet Audio, an Australian brand with a rich history in Dolby\/DTS processors and digital patch bays. Violet Audio was recently reactivated as the central brand entity for this new venture. In collaboration with long-time technology partner DSPRO from Brazil, an important parter which has the legacy of creating Digital Audio networks and Remote stage boxes, the team has invested heavily in the research, development, and production of the dMix range. DSPRO has a long history in the field with successful products and a deep understanding of the requirements needed to create tour grade hardware. <\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t

This collaboration reunites the core innovators who were instrumental in shaping earlier digital mixer technologies. Among them is George Yohng, a renowned DSP and Firmware engineer who played a major role in the development of the Ui24\u2019s signal processing platform. George remains one of the most respected software engineers in the global pro audio space, known for his deep DSP expertise and scalable systems design. <\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t

Engineering Excellence: Track Record of Innovation<\/h3>

The team behind dMix has consistently delivered technology-driven solutions that go on to shape the market. With successful products across live, studio, and install sectors, their portfolio includes innovations in digital control surfaces, audio-over-IP systems, multi-channel preamps, and intelligent patching solutions.<\/p>

\u201cOur strength lies in designing advanced, scalable platforms and building real-world products around them,\u201d explains Danny Olesh. \u201cWe understand what musicians, engineers, and integrators need\u2014because we\u2019ve worked beside them for decades.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Global Marketing and Creative Launch<\/b><\/h3>
\u00a0<\/div>
Final production samples of the dMix range are currently being manufactured. A new website is underway, alongside a suite of promotional videos and marketing materials. As with their previous campaigns, the team is working with a group of Australian musicians and artists\u2014including talent featured in their earlier campaigns, such as this performance clip\u2014to demonstrate the product in real-world scenarios. (TBA)<\/div>
In parallel, press releases, magazine ads, and trade show campaigns are being prepared to support a full international launch at NAMM 2026 in Los Angeles.<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>

Looking Ahead: Rebuilding a Global Network<\/b><\/h3>
\u00a0<\/div>
Having previously established a successful international distribution network under SM Pro Audio, the team is confident in rebuilding that network to support dMix worldwide.<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>
\u201cEverything we have all done before has led to this point,\u201d Olesh says. \u201cWe\u2019ve got the experience, the team, the product\u2014and now the opportunity\u2014to put Violet Audio back on the map as a hub for world-class pro audio design.\u201d<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
