Crest Audio recently introduced the HP-Eight professional mixing console, designed to be a combination of Crest's audio design and modern, efficient construction. The HP-Eight is available in portable 24-channel and 32-channel frames, as well as installation-sized 40, 48 and 56-channel frames intended for medium-capacity live performance venues and houses of worship.

The HP-Eight mixing console features 4-band, double-swept mid EQ; eight analog subgroups; 2-channel matrix; full talkback and monitor systems; and 4-channel scene mute. This console also includes 10 aux sends on each mono input channel for use as a monitor mixer, plus five stereo line input channels with EQ, assignment and aux sends.

The internal switching power supply on the HP-Eight is designed to work on worldwide voltages at 50 or 60 Hz, and a DC connector allows attachment to an optional, external backup supply for redundant operation.
