Allen & Heath Avantis Solo 12 Fader 64ch Digital Mixer / DPack Plug-In Bundle
Description
Allen & Heath Avantis Solo bundle including dPack.
The Avantis Solo is a 64 channel / 42 buss mixer platform featuring Allen and Heath's 96kHz XCVI FPGA engine with class-leading 0.7ms latency plus add-on processing from their flasgship dLive mixing system.
Featuring a single 15.6: Full HD capactivie touchscreen, 18 assignble Softkeys, 12 faders with six layers, plus six local analog inputs and outputs, stereo AES input and output locally on the surface. Dual card slots allow for a range of conectivity option cards including Dante (both 64 and 128 input), Waves, gigaACE, superMADI, fiberACe, AES, DX LInk and more.
96kHz XCVI Core
Avantis is the third console range to be powered by the 96kHz XCVI core - pioneered by Allen & Heath using next generation FPGA technology, with parallel virtual processing cores delivering 64 full processing inputs and a configurable 42 bus architecture with phase coherency on all mix outputs. XCVI employs variable bit depth for ultimate precision and noise performance, a 96bit mix bus, and offers ultra-low latency at just 0.7ms. XCVI also enables DEEP processing, embedding class-leading processing emulations directly within the input and mix channels.
Easy expansion with Everything
I/O Avantis Solo is as flexible as it is small, onboard sLink allows for connection to our wide range of audio expanders, whilst two large format I/O card slots support MADI, Dante and Waves cards for a whole host of recording and integration options. For more control you can add our IP remote controllers, connect with MixPad, or Custom Controller, or put the artist in the driving seat with our ME Personal Mixer range.
Continuity UI - Touch the big picture
Continuity UI allows you to see and instantly interact with more of what matters, enabling a seamless connection between the physical controls and the crisp 1080p Full-HD display. The channel rotaries let you work gains or pans, then at the touch of a button, dynamically fold the display to show EQ or compressor parameters across the whole bank. Avantis Solo features a FastGrab tab on the right-hand side of the screen, giving you split-second access to key freely-assignable parameters like aux sends, EQ, compressor and FX on the currently selected or specific channel.
Get dLive Processing with dPack
Right out of the box, Avantis Solo is loaded with powerful processing tools that will easily meet the demands of most users and applications. Want more options? Upgrade your console to Avantis dPack, and you'll get additional processing from Allen & Heath's flagship dLive system, including Dyn8 (up to 16 instances), DEEP Compressors, and the Dual-Stage Valve preamp. Best of all, all future dPack updates will be automatically included, forever and free of charge.
Dante, Waves and more..
Two additional I/O Ports allow Avantis Solo to benefit from the full range of current dLive option cards, including Dante (64x64 and 128x128), Waves, gigaACE, MADI and more, expanding the scope for system integration, digital splits, recording and connectivity the Allen & Heath DT range of Dante enabled expanders. For local I/O, Avantis is well equipped with 6 XLR analog inputs, 6 XLR analog outputs, plus AES.
12 RackExtra FX Engines
Allen & Heath has a well-earned reputation for crafting FX emulations that rival the very best third party plug-ins, but with none of the associated hassle. Avantis is armed with 12 stereo FX engines and features the acclaimed RackExtra library of emulations of legendary classic reverbs, gated reverbs, delays, modulators and more. All FX have dedicated stereo returns so you don't need to waste input channels.
