Video Review: Allen & Heath AVANTIS digital console
/ Reviews / Allen & Heath AVANTIS: Video Review
Whilst we filmed this ‘way back’ in December 2019, it seems that Allen & Heath AVANTIS is (at the time of writing) just about to ship to Factory Sound.
Like they say… “it’s a small step, to a giant leap”. Andrew Crawford from TAG takes us on a journey through some of the key features from this latest offering from A&H. Tone and Crawf always enjoy a bit of a chat on camera, and hopefully there’s some useful info here for you.
If you’d rather digest your information by have a read via our product pages, here you go:
AVANTIS DPACK BUNDLE (Console plus dPack processing, and dust cover)
AVANTIS DPACK (just the dPack DEEP and Dyn8 processing pack)
AVANTIS DPACK GX48 (Console, plus dPack processing, PLUS GX4816 expander)
