Why the HORIZON 8P?

The 8P puts a full tracking front end in one rack unit. Eight genuine Audient
console preamps - David Dearden's circuit design from the ASP8024-HE console -
give every source real analogue character and 75dB of clean, quiet gain, while
ORBIT Control reshapes each preamp's impedance in hardware to voice ribbon,
dynamic and condenser microphones at the source. When the session turns to
mixing, eight DB25 line inputs bring your outboard straight in. 32-bit conversion at
133dB dynamic range and 0.99ms round-trip latency let you track and monitor
through native plugins with no perceptible lag, and Horizon Control keeps routing,
monitoring and four independent mixes a click away.
Welcome to the new standard.
