Allen & Heath Avantis Solo distils all the power of Avantis into a potent single screen package. Powered by Allen & Heath's award winning XCVI FPGA, Avantis Solo boasts 64 channels of input processing with 42 configurable busses; an intelligent SLink port connecting Avantis Solo with the Everything I/O range of remote expanders; studio-grade hardware emulations from Allen & Heath's flagship dLive system via the included dPack upgrade; and a super strong yet lightweight full metal chassis.
96kHz XCVI Core
Avantis is the third console range to be powered by the 96kHz XCVI core - pioneered by Allen & Heath using next generation FPGA technology, with parallel virtual processing cores delivering 64 full processing inputs and a configurable 42 bus architecture with phase coherency on all mix outputs. XCVI employs variable bit depth for ultimate precision and noise performance, a 96bit mix bus, and offers ultra-low latency at just 0.7ms. XCVI also enables DEEP processing, embedding class-leading processing emulations directly within the input and mix channels.
Easy expansion with Everything
I/O Avantis Solo is as flexible as it is small, onboard sLink allows for connection to our wide range of audio expanders, whilst two large format I/O card slots support MADI, Dante and Waves cards for a whole host of recording and integration options. For more control you can add our IP remote controllers, connect with MixPad, or Custom Controller, or put the artist in the driving seat with our ME Personal Mixer range.
Continuity UI - Touch the big picture
Continuity UI allows you to see and instantly interact with more of what matters, enabling a seamless connection between the physical controls and the crisp 1080p Full-HD display. The channel rotaries let you work gains or pans, then at the touch of a button, dynamically fold the display to show EQ or compressor parameters across the whole bank. Avantis Solo features a FastGrab tab on the right-hand side of the screen, giving you split-second access to key freely-assignable parameters like aux sends, EQ, compressor and FX on the currently selected or specific channel.
