SR-16 offers all of the AQONDA functionality and unimpeachable audio quality in an Innovason 'skin'. Fully remotely controllable by the Innovason Eclipse and Eclipse GT consoles, both from the console's GUI and the control surface, SR-16 is compatible with existing and upcoming EtherSound set-ups, and there is no limitation to the number of devices that may be controlled.
Alternatively, SR-16 can be controlled using any of the available EtherSound software management programs. By the same token, Eclipse is capable of detecting and controlling a Digigram AQONDA just as if it were an SR-16. It should also be noted that, even in its original factory format, AQONDA is remotely controllable via Soundcraft, Yamaha and Studer digital consoles, as well as Innovason.
Digigram's EtherSound product manager, Joffrey Heyraud, comments, " AQONDA is an ideal solution for Innovason. "It is a perfect complement to their existing range of stage racks, and a really cost-effective way for their clients to increase channel count and control incrementally.
"Furthermore - and this is the same for any OEM deal, and why it can be so advantageous - all the product development had already been done thus reducing drastically development costs and time to market, the product fully road-tested, and the cherry on the cake was that it was already compatible with their consoles! It was a complete no-brainer for Innovason, and a win-win situation for everybody."
Innovason's product manager, Hervé de Caro, adds, "The quality of Digigram's mic preamps in the AQONDA units is outstanding, so we had no hesitation in adopting this technology as a worthy partner to our existing solutions. As a result, our clients have even more options at their fingertips and we are secure in the knowledge that we are offering a quality solution."
