ASP8024 was designed by one of the world’s most experienced and successful console engineering teams, headed by David Dearden and Gareth Davies – the founders of DDA, whose designs such as DMR12, AMR24 and DCM232 are still regarded as amongst the best sounding consoles ever made.
Inputs To avoid an excessively long reach and to improve visibility, all input related functions that normally tend to be pre-set are located in the lower part of the meter bridge directly facing the engineer and within arms length. This also enables isolation of the no-compromise microphone amplifier design, which has a performance equivalent to many high priced outboard units.
features Equalisers Master Section During the mix phase the short fader path is often used to provide extra inputs to the mix, any or all of which may require EQ and Effects processing. To cater for this situation, the ASP8024 EQ can be split into two parts. The upper part handles shelving high and low frequency controls, and the lower section is a pair of fully parametric mids. Each section can be individually switched into the short fader path.
Sub Groups Compressor Control Room Most in-line mixing consoles allow the formation of sub groups, but usually at the expense of losing a channel. To avoid this, ASP8024 has 8 independent sub groups, each of which has an insert point should external processing be required. The output of each sub group can be panned across the mix, or even used as the record signal to an 8 Track recorder, metered by a 20 segment peak reading led bargraph.
Confidence Audient’s designers worked closely with both component designers and manufacturing companies to optimise the choice of component types and assembly methods. Passive components are generally ‘high tech’ surface mount devices, allowing a high density component layout optimised for low noise and crosstalk. Active components such as integrated circuits, and also potentiometers, switches and connectors are ‘pin in hole’ types to ensure easy serviceability.
We believe the ASP 8024 truly sets a new standard in music recording and mixing technology. We’re proud of the ASP8024- of its outstanding features, its future-proof performance and of the way it looks and feels. We’re proud of the engineering and design innovations we’ve used, which allows us to deliver this extraordinary product at a rather ordinary price.
