Control Surface
Three 17-inch, 1000-nit high-brightness multitouch screens carry the meter bridge and soft quick-select buttons, keeping metering and control in the same eyeline. Beneath them sit 38 x 100mm touch-sensitive motorised faders in three banks of 12, plus two user-assignable faders, with 70 individual TFT channel displays across the floating chassis. A dark mode is included for low-light environments.
Conversion and I/O
Local connectivity runs through DiGiCo's 32-bit Ultimate Stadius ADC/DAC conversion as standard: 8 mic/line inputs, 8 line outputs and 4 stereo AES/EBU in/out. The console offers six MADI interfaces at 48kHz (three redundant at 96kHz) on BNC, dual DMI card slots, support for dual second-generation Optocore loops and a built-in UB MADI USB recording interface. A SoundGrid interface card adds up to 64 further I/O for Waves connectivity.
Processing
Mustard Processing channel strips (36), Spice Rack native FPGA processing (8 mono / 4 stereo slots), 64 Nodal Processing instances and True Solo are all included as standard.
Audio Performance
Internal processing up to 40-bit floating point with 32-bit A/D and D/A conversion. Processing delay is 1ms typical from rack input through the L-R buss to stage output at 96kHz. Frequency response is plus/minus 0.15dB from 20Hz to 20kHz, THD under 0.002% at unity gain, channel separation better than 120dB, and mic input EIN better than -128dB. Maximum input and output level is +22dBu.
Physical
Dimensions are 1595mm wide by 805mm deep by 482mm high, weighing 70kg (198kg in flightcase). Power draw is 100V to 240V, 50 to 60Hz, 295VA.
Applications
Live sound, installed sound, theatre, broadcast, house of worship, corporate and sport.
