Would it be possible to make the DEEP processing available via an external card?
For example I mix on various Avanti’s and not all of them have DEEP installed. it would be cool if I could personally own DEEP and use it when on consoles that don’t have it.
As DEEP processing is tied to the DNA of each mixer precicely to stop you using across more than one device, I think you will get a very big NO from A&H on this one!
We have the same problem on the SQ consoles.
It is incomprehensible that (as a freelancer) you cannot use your own purchased add-ons on the desk you are currently working on (or have to work on).
SQ rental companies in particular avoid buying add-ons because not everyone needs them - it will be no different with Avantis.
You can purchase the license for add-ons and activate them on a console using a code.
In 2024, it should not be a problem for a technical company like A&H to be able to lock its add-ons on this console using another code again in order to then unlock them on another console.
This would also ensure that an add-on can only be used on one device at a time.
It would be important for the user to only have the tools they have purchased available on the desk they are currently using.
It is useless to have them on a desk that they cannot use at the moment.
I know technicians who don’t have their own console, but would buy add-ons to use on consoles they work on.
