Millennia HV316/8 - 8-Channel Remote Controlled Dante Microphone Preamp

The HV-316 is a finely tuned instrument intended for critical professional applications - it offers the world's most sonically neutral microphone preamplification. Up to 16 HV-316s can be simultaneously controlled plus an additional 16 HV-3Rs - a total of 384 channels on one system. A high-speed Ethernet control interface makes this possible without any significant system control latency, even if all 384 channels were to change parameters simultaneously. The MIDI control interface is compatible with Avid’s Pro Tools® PRE remote microphone preamplifier protocol. As defined by Avid, up to 4 HV-316 (8 HV-316/8) units can be simultaneously controlled with MIDI in Pro Tools.
