Chris Walsh, AXI sales director reports: "Champlin liked the ACS8024 so much that he bought it before the show had even finished! It was exactly the solution he was looking for."
The ACS8024 combines the feature mix of the ASP8024 with an additional control section bay with Command 8 fitted for ProTools control. This brings the control of ProTools right to the traditional listening position: the centre of the console.
Walsh comments: "With the advent of digital recording and expectations of engineers at an all time high, coupling Audient's high quality analogue design with the digital interface means they get the best of both worlds."
Control of other workstations such as Nuendo and Logic Audio is also possible using the Mackie Control, which fits into the same bay. Also included with the ACS8024 is a 15" TFT monitor display, keyboard and mouse work surface.
Champlin has recorded and toured with Chicago ever since he joined in 1981, whilst releasing the occasional solo album.
