Key features for a modern workflow
A preamp that makes a difference
Audient's Class A preamp delivers a solid transient image, tight bass, and precise highs. Coupled with 48 V phantom power, it brings out the best in any condenser or dynamic microphone.
Faithful conversion and more confident decisions
The converters capture every nuance: more definition on headphones and speakers, more depth, leading to faster and more reliable mixing choices.
Monitoring under control
The Mix/Pan control balances direct source and DAW return for comfortable recording, with the ability to instantly mute monitors via a dedicated mute button.
JFET input and ScrollControl
The harmonic-rich JFET instrument input welcomes your guitars/basses in "plug and play" style. The knob becomes "ScrollControl" to adjust faders, parameters, and automation without taking your hands off the desk.
