Dual Layer Control Overview
The ASP8024 has become a benchmark mixing console for recording studios. Its simplicity, elegance and sound quality have been the hallmarks of the Audient brand since its formation in 1997.
Audient remains firmly committed to the analogue world - after all, there lies the wealth of experience and expertise of founders David Dearden and Gareth Davies. So how does an analogue company evolve in an ever increasingly digital world? Quite simply, by combining the best of the two domains.
An in-line console gives you precision control over your mixes, and now with Dual Layer Control you can have command over your DAW software as well – plus moving fader automation of 8 sub groups or 8 external signals via rear panel connections.
Utilising the same control features as the groundbreaking small format ASP2802 console, Dual Layer Control transforms the ASP8024 into the ultimate studio tool. This is the most significant update to ASP8024 since its release and brings the specification of ASP8024 to a level unmatched by anything in its price range.
