If want to control as much of the performance as possible, you'll love the Avantis. Why? This compact unit gives you total control over mix bus architecture and lets you customize the layout in whatever way that makes the most sense to you. Avantis is loaded with Continuity UI that uses drag 'n drop parameters and physical controls to create an intuitive workflow with at-a-glance navigation. As if that's not enough control, the Avantis by Allen & Heath has 24 assignable SoftKeys and user-configurable rotary controls.
Dual 15.6" touchscreens turbocharge your workflow
Allen & Health wanted to make the Avantis their most flexible compact mixer yet. To do that, they loaded the unit with Continuity UI and two 15.6" high-definition touchscreens. These screens are ultra responsive and utilize gesture controls to pinch, swipe, and drag 'n drop your way through the intuitive interface. You can open configurable widget areas to load up your scenes, meters, and use RackExtra FX to add effects like Reverb, Chorus and Delays. This version of Avantis comes pre-loaded with dPack, which puts additional sound-shaping at your fingertips with tools like Dynamic EQ, Multiband Compressor, Vocal Shift. With the abundance of options and user control, your workflow will look and feel exactly how you want it to.
Superior expandability can handle it all
Straight out of the box, Avantis can handle 12 XLR inputs and outputs, network I/O and SLink connections to handle 64 channels at a time with 144 fader strips. The Avantis has two I/O ports on the back that are each capable of 128x128 operation at 96kHz for cards including Dante, MADI, Waves, and gigaACE. This mixer has an SLink port that controls your I/O expanders, stage boxes, and networked equipment. The Avantis is equipped with Word Clock I/O that keeps all your digital gear perfectly synced to ensure your show runs without a hitch.
