Expanding on the sonic clarity and full-featured control of the ASP8024 console, the ACS version brings integrated workstation control right where you want it: between the speakers.
The ACS bay can receive a Digidesign Command|8 or Mackie Control Universal control surface into any of the console bays, allowing instant ergonomic control of transport functions, software mixing and plug-ins.
A 15' or 17' TFT monitor mounted on the meter bridge and space for your keyboard and mouse mean that you no longer need to leave the sweet spot to tweak your plug-ins.
In addition, the ACS model also includes a new level of finish:
- American Walnut top trim, side cheeks and armrest.
- Classic American style knobs.
- Optional blue CUT lights.
A powerful, flexible and intuitive console, ASP8024 brings superb audio performance from one of the world's most experienced and successful console engineering teams.
