Content | The AB168 Portable Remote AudioRack from Allen & Heath is a 48kHz audio rack specifically engineered to be a stage-ready solution for any live sound application. Boasting enhanced I/O, versatile compatibility, and capable of daisy-chaining for easy scaling of your sound system to fit the size of your venue, the AB168 is built with heavy-duty components that make it durable and travel-ready. This audio rack has been designed for compatibility with Allen & Heath’s Qu series digital mixers, Avantis and SQ mixer series, as well as the AHM-64 audio matrix processor (all compatible external equipment sold separately).
Fitted with 16 microphone preamps that feature Phantom Power indicators, as well as 8 XLR line outputs, the AB168 is powered by Allen & Heath’s proprietary dSNAKE protocol. Take advantage of its I/O to connect it to any compatible system, using a single CAT5 cable to position the unit up to 100m (approximately 328 feet) away from the mixer.
Using a secure dSNAKE Ethercon port, the AB168 connects over a CAT5 cable to your mixer or AR2412 AudioRack. Expanding your options, the AB168 also offers a second EtherCon port, allowing you to daisy-chain to other AB168 units or connect to a ME personal mixing system (sold separately). Synchronizing your system is a breeze due to the AB168 AudioRack’s automatic updates to its firmware.
The power and versatility that characterizes the AB168 extend to its external build. Its rugged design includes rubber bumpers that protect it during transportation, so you can move it around the stage without worrying about wear and tear. Place it directly on the stage floor during performances, or use its optional rack mounting kit to permanently install it in your setup (sold separately).
Combined with its optimized durability, the AB168 is surprisingly light, weighing in at a little over 10.5 lbs (4.8 kg). Add to that its sturdy carrying handle, and this audio rack is a great choice for uses that need both rugged quality and maximum portability.

The Midas PRO Series family moves up a gear with the PRO X control centre and the industry-changing NEUTRON Audio System Engine. Featuring 168 simultaneous input channels and 99 time-aligned and phase-coherent mix buses, the PRO X sets a new performance benchmark in high-profile live sound applications and is a truly impressive digital control surface for the engineer whose very livelihood depends on both unparalleled functionality and reliability. Like all PRO Series consoles, the PRO X features managed latency and 40 bit floating point processing precision.
HyperMAC and AES50 audio networking technologies allow the PRO X to dynamically assign up to 288 inputs and 294 outputs at 96 kHz sampling rate to any of its input channels and bus outputs on a scene-by-scene basis. This high level of connectivity, coupled with the large channel and bus counts, makes the PRO X equally at home in theatres and symphony halls as it is in live concert touring, outside broadcast and music festivals. | Espandibile fino a 32 canali - QCon Pro XS8 + 1 fader motorizzati sensibili al tocco con risoluzione a 10 bitFader LED a 12 segmentiDoppio display LCD retroilluminato 2 × 56 per visualizzare il nome del canale. i valori di controllo. ecc.

Icon # Qcon Pro X - controller per DAW # Controller Midi / Controller Midi USB # Serie Qcon | The A-Designs Mix Factory takes a fresh approach to analog summing, delivering analog warmth with the depth and imaging needed to make your mixes truly stand out. Mix Factory inputs 16 channels and sums to balanced stereo outputs. All channels are fitted with gain controls, pan pots, and mutes. Two 8-channel groups are provided, each has an insert with mute button, and there is a master insert for all 16 channels. Mix Factory lets you switch between "clean," which bypasses the transformers, to "tonal," which introduces the harmonic enhancement of custom Cinemag output transformers. The Mix Factory is linkable, letting you expand to 64 or more channels. Take your studio to the next level with the A-Designs Mix Factory.
Benefits of the hybrid studio
Producer/engineer Tony Shepperd came up with the idea for Mix Factory, and it was brought to life by noted circuit design wizard Paul Wolff. Mr. Shepperd had been one of the modern engineers who subscribed to the "all-in-the-box" school of digital music production. At some point, however, he came to believe that digital and analog could very well coexist in the contemporary studio in a synergistic union that delivered additional "best-of-both-worlds" sonic benefits. This hybrid approach worked exceptionally well for Tony, taking his mixes to a new level. So much so that other engineers took notice and started asking him for tips. Today, most high-end recording facilities (including Sweetwater Studios) are hybridized in one sense or another. A-Designs' Mix Factory is a smart and cost-effective way to realize the many advantages of this approach.
A-Designs Mix Factory Features:
- 2RU 16-channel analog summing mixer
- 2 x 8-channel Groups
- All channels fitted with gain controls, pan pots, and mutes
- Switchable Cinemag output transformers
- Linkable, for easy studio expansion
- External power supply (included) switches between 120V and 230V
