Audient is known for its natural and open mic pres
UK - ASP800, the new, eight-channel mic pre & ADC from Audient is now shipping worldwide and is available at all Audient dealers.

Following the release of the bus-powered audio interface iD14, the highly anticipated ASP800 offers eight Audient console mic pres, Burr-Brown A-D converters, two discrete JFET instrument inputs and two brand new 'Retro Channels' featuring tone controls HMX and IRON.

HMX is a custom harmonic distortion designed to emulate the sweet, thick tones often associated with 1960s tube designs, whilst Audient's brand new variable British transformer saturator, IRON instantly adds sparkle, replicating the coveted transformer 'zing' of British audio in the 1970s - both giving new dimensions to a recording.

"Not only does ASP800 boast an incredible feature set, Audient is one of the only companies to offer custom transformer saturation at this price point," explains Tom Waterman, Audient's technical director. "It's the perfect addition to your existing setup, offering eight additional Class-A inputs, making it ideal for recording drums - or if you simply need more channels.

"As with all mic pres across the Audient range, these are the same design as those found on the flagship ASP8024 console designed by David Dearden. Audient is certainly known for its natural and open mic pres, but that doesn't mean we don't understand the importance of adding colour," he adds, highlighting the unit's 'Retro Channels'.

Key features also include pristine Burr-Brown A-D converters, ADAT connectivity, a Word Clock input and balanced analogue line outputs - all packed into a convenient, 1RU rackmount.
