Overview
AVANTIS-SU is the Avantis Solo Ultra: the compact 12 fader, single 15.6 inch screen Avantis Solo shipped with dPack enabled and the RackUltra FX module factory fitted. The result is the full Avantis Ultra mix engine in a 546 mm wide frame: 96 input channels, 56 configurable busses, 24 Dyn8 engines, the DEEP processing library and NEQ12 on mix outputs.
RackUltra FX adds eight premium engines across vocal processing, reverb and delay, distortion and saturation and harmonisers. They sit on their own stereo sends and returns alongside the 12 RackExtra FX slots, so no busses or channels are lost. Local I/O is 6 XLR in, 6 XLR out and stereo AES in and out, with USB stereo recording and BNC word clock. Both 128x128 I/O Ports and the SLink port are there, so the Solo Ultra takes the same option cards and expanders as a full size Avantis or dLive rig. It makes an excellent monitor console beside a full Avantis, or a main console for venues that want premium processing without the desk space.

Forefront Tip
