Allen & Heath Avantis Solo Ultra 96-Ch Digital Mixer, dPack + RackUltra FX

Everything the Avantis platform can do, in its most compact frame. The Avantis Solo Ultra is the single-screen Avantis Solo delivered with both the dPack software upgrade and the RackUltra FX module already included, giving a stand-alone 96 channel / 56 configurable bus console built on the 96kHz XCVI FPGA engine with 0.7ms latency.

With dPack on board, the mix engine grows from 64 to 96 input channels and from 42 to 56 buses and gains the DEEP processing suite from the dLive system: boutique preamp, compressor and expander models, the NEQ12 twelve-band parametric EQ and 24 Dyn8 dynamic EQ / multiband compression engines. The factory-fitted RackUltra FX module adds 8 further FX engines with their own stereo sends and returns for reverb designers, vocal tuning and shifting, harmonisers, delay, saturation and distortion, on top of the 12 RackExtra FX slots.

A 15.6-inch Full HD capacitive touchscreen with Continuity UI links the screen to 12 faders across 6 layers (72 fader strips) and 18 assignable SoftKeys. Local connections include 6 XLR mic/line inputs, 6 XLR outputs and stereo AES in and out, while an SLink port and two 128x128 I/O ports accept the full range of dLive option cards, including Dante, MADI, Waves and gigaACE, for larger systems and multitrack recording.
