Allen & Heath AH-AVANTIS 64 Channel Digital Mixing Console
Description Allen & Heath AVANTIS One of the best 64 Channel Digital Mixing Console with lots of features for the price The Allen & Heath Avanits Console is a great console for the price that is low priced when compared to the other console manufactures. The Allen Heath Avantis has so many features that it makes this digital mixer a winner for a mid sized console for any church or production Avantis is putting the next-generation technology in a stand alone 64 channel/42 configurable bus console that comes along with dual Full HD touchscreens, a super-flexible workflow along with Continuity UI, extensive I/O options, add-on processing from the dLive mixing system, and a rugged full metal chassis. The power of Avantis is emanating from the XCVI Core – pioneered by the Allen & Heath R&D team with the use of next generation FPGA technology, along with parallel virtual processing cores that are capable of generating enough power for 88×42 (including FX returns) channels of processing at 96kHz sampling rate. The massive power of XCVI (25 billion operations per second) is allowing the Avantis to deliver 64 full processing inputs and 12 stereo FX returns, 42 bus along with configurable mix architecture, variable bit depth for ultimate precision and noise performance, a virtually infinite mix headroom thanks to a 96bit accumulator, and class-leading latency at an ultra-low 0.7ms. 96kHz FPGA processing 64 Input Channels 24 Faders / 6 Layers 42 Mix busses Dual 15.6” Full HD capacitive touchscreen Digital Mixer DEEP Processing ready (AH-dPack) 96kHz 64 channel / 42 bus digital mixer XCVI FPGA core with ultra-low latency (0.7ms) Fully configurable mix bus architecture Super-tough, full metal chassis Continuity UI seamlessly connects physical and touchscreen controls for the fastest, most intuitive workflows dPack option adds dLive processing, including 16 Dyn8 engines, plus per-channel zero-latency DEEP Compressors and Dual-Stage Valve preamp 12 RackExtra FX slots with dedicated stereo returns 16 DCAs Dual 15.6” Full HD capacitive touchscreens with gesture control AMM (Automatic Mic Mixer) up to 64 channels across 1, 2 or 4 zones Fully assignable layout 144 fader strips (24 faders, 6 layers) with optional dedicated master section SLink port for connection to Remote I/O Expanders and the ME Personal Mixing System 12 analogue XLR Inputs / 12 analogue XLR Outputs 1 Stereo AES In / 2 Stereo AES Out 2 I/O Ports, both capable of 128x128 operation at 96kHz – for optional cards inc.
