Our take
History & design
The Studer D940 is Studer's first large-scale digital mixing console, launched in 1993; the first unit went to broadcaster WDR Cologne. Aimed at music production and broadcast, it was offered in an on-air D941 variant. Acquired that same year by Harman, Studer built on the D940/D941 to develop, in 1997, the D950 with far more extensive SHARC DSP processing. The D940 relies on a MADI infrastructure for audio routing and interconnection in large installations.
