The Simplicity of Analog With the Power of Digital
Mixing, whether it be live or in the studio, should be an intuitive process. Though we like to benefit from the most advanced technology, we don’t need it getting in the way. StudioLive 24.4.2AI’s familiar, straightforward interface lays out a complete channel strip with the fader at your fingertips. Making adjustments is fast and easy, with no menu layers to sift through. But don’t let the surface-driven workflow fool you. Beneath the hood lies some serious processing power and enough features to ignite your creativity, plus the power to harness the project at hand.
Fat Channel and Effects
With best-in-class EQ, dynamics processing, and effects processing, the StudioLive 24.4.2AI is rich with features that really matter. The unique “Fat Channel” provides two complete sets of EQ and dynamics-processor settings for each channel. Both can be saved and, using the ALT button, A/B’d for comparison. The EQ section is comprised of four bands of parametric EQ with Frequency, Width and Gain controls, plus Shelving on the top and bottom bands for each channel. Each of the four bands has an ON/OFF switch and the whole section can be disengaged via the global EQ ON/OFF. There are an additional twelve 31-band Graphic EQs for the main stereo bus and 10 aux buses. For the ultimate in dynamic versatility, every channel, aux, and subgroup comes equipped with a Compressor, a Limiter with variable threshold, and an Expander/Gate with Key Listen and Key Filter.
Direct Wi-Fi and Wired Networking
Connect to a router and wirelessly access your StudioLive 24.4.2AI via a formidable suite of control and recording software designed on the Active Integration™ platform.
