• Phantom Power - Give your mics the power they need
• -10dB Pad - Keep headroom on loud sources
• Polarity Reverse - Make sure everything is in phase
Integrate your outboard
ADC Insert Points
Easily integrate outboard FX such as EQ and compression before the analogue to digital converter. Letting you record using your favourite outboard gear
Clarity where you need it
Class Leading Converters
Confidently capture your microphones and line level instruments with ASP880’s class leading converter technology. By providing the cleanest signal path possible, ASP880 makes sure you capture every nuance, every detail of your audio, letting you focus on getting the most from your session
More than meets the eye
Use as a standalone converter
ASP880 lets you bypass the mic pres and converters in your current interface and achieve the same audio excellence as the top studios
Using the ADC Inputs, ASP880 can operate as a standalone A-D converter, allowing you to feed the ADC from other sources such as alternative mic pre's
Plug and play
JFET Instrument Input
As well as offering you 8 channels of Audient mic pre, ASP880 has two harmonically rich JFET D.I inputs. Designed to replicate the input stage of a classic valve amplifier, you can plug your guitar, bass, keyboard or drum machine straight in and start recording instantly
Versatile simplicity
Variable Impedance and HPF
Variable Impedance - Variable Impedance enables you to match the impedance of the mic pre to your favourite ribbon mic, letting you retain the punch and frequency response the mic was born with. It also works on your other mics, just more subtly
Variable High Pass Filters - Take control of your signal with the Variable HPF. Remove unwanted low frequencies, prevent proximity effect and tighten up your low end with a range of 25Hz to 250Hz. The result is a clean, ready to record signal
Built to last
All Metal Construction
ASP880 has been designed to last, its all-metal construction and hand milled aluminium knobs will stand up to countless late nights in the studio and days on the road. All this in 1RU!
