Hi,
I work at a medium sized theatre, which already owns an Avantis and IO boxes.
Our guest technicians use whatever brand they bring, if they don’t work on ours.
I got interested in the AHM line because it might solve a few wishes we have.
-being able to playback or do live anouncements via the PA, regardless of any console connected to it.
-being able to be flexible in the distribution of audio to several speaker systems we have, including the surround speakers channels we have
-being able to put dynamic EQ and/or multiband compression:limiting on the PA to keep levels in check, especially in painful/damaging frequency bands.
On the first two accounts, AHM seems like a decent fit if one can buy AES input cards for it(?)
On the last count I was hopeful but AHM seems a little limited for that purpose if I understand it correctly.
The compressor on the channels are full band only, right?
The EQs qre non dynamic?
The Dyn8 is not available for the AHM right? Any chance of that happening? Paid add on?
I see that you can have limited frequency band limiters on the outputs but I’m not sure that would work in our situation.
I’d rather have dynamic EQ regardless since that’s sonically transparent if not active.
Any advice or am I barking up the wrong tree and should buy a second mixer instead to do something like this?
Cheers!
