The Antelope Audio Discrete 8 features 8 console-grade preamps that feature a fully discrete design. Discrete 8 allows you to fully transform these high quality Accusonic preamps in a plethora of classic units in real-time. Accusionic modeling emulates the sounds of many classic and expensive microphones. It allows you to choose from a collection of various mics, and record their results as you monitor live. This allows you to choose between a blend of different preamp models during mixing. The Accusonic 3D modeling engine allows you to transform both the Edge and Verge microphones into vintage replicas, giving you full control over the proximity effect, off-axis response, and polar patterns, before or after recording. You can choose whether you want to record with or without Accusonic modeling, and vary between different mic and preamp models whilst mixing. Combine the Discrete 8 with the Antelope Audio Edge and Verge microphones to fully experience the new microphone modeling technology.
Discrete 8 features Antelope's 64-bit Acoustically Focused Clocking. Included is a word clock input that de-jitters, and distributes an external clock signal. The 3 WC outputs allows you to distribute your signal to your other digital gear and mic preamps, whilst keeping it all fully synced together.
Antelope Audio Discrete 8 allows you to monitor up to 4 individual monitor mixes. The Discrete 8 features a comprehensive monitoring section with built-in talkback. Discrete 8 allows you to send 4 individual monitor mixes to headphones or monitor output, with or without FPGA FX. This allows you to tailor monitor mixes to each performer, enabling them to hear a sound as close to the final product as possible. Use the handy levels on the front panel of the Discrete 8 to always keep track of your levels.
Discrete 8 allows for easy remote control with its downloadable remote app. The app allows you to take control of microphone input levels, talkback levels, and monitoring and headphone loudness levels. Additionally, musicians can also take control of their own monitor mixes (if they have the app), allowing them to feel completely comfortable with their mix, and provide you with a more efficient recording session.
With Discrete 8 you can save and load AFX presets, and exchange settings across all Antelope Audio FPGA-equipped interfaces. This allows you to exchange FX settings with other devices, and other Antelope users. It's also great for transferring settings between different studios.
If any electrical items in your order are supplied with a United Kingdom plug connection, a suitable plug conversion adapter will be included free of charge.
