Details
Controls: Per-channel gain (0-70dB, -15dB pad), polarity reverse, HMX/IRON tone-shaping switches
I/O: 8x Audient Console mic preamps, 2x JFET instrument inputs, 8x balanced XLR line outputs, ADAT expansion, 2x retro tone channels (HMX harmonic saturator + IRON transformer drive)
Notes: Mic gain 0-70dB with switchable -15dB pad; max input +20dBu (+35dBu w/pad); THD+N @0dBu(1kHz) <0.003% (-90.5dBu); mic EIN <-127.0dBu; CMRR >80dB @100Hz-2kHz; A-D dynamic range 113.5dB unweighted/116.0dB A-weighted; dimensions 482x286.5x44mm; weight 4.5kg; power 35W max. Unique 'HMX'/'IRON' analog character/saturation circuits (2 channels) are a notable differentiator vs. ASP880. sample_rate_khz/bit_depth left blank — not stated for ADAT expander (host-clock dependent), not guessed.
