JESSUP, MARYLAND – JANUARY 2014: API’s professional project studio console, THE BOX, was the hit of AES in New York City, and now API showcases it at NAMM 2014 in Anaheim, California to the west coast recordists. THE BOX is the ideal analog console for small studios that are centered on DAWs, providing four input channels with preamps and processing; sixteen channels of classic analog summing (twenty at mixdown); cue sends with talkback; and monitor control. Most importantly, THE BOX uses the classic discrete analog circuitry that is found in all of its products, including the 1608 small format console and the Legacy Plus and Vision large-format consoles.
API also debuts three new 500 Series products at NAMM: the new eight-slot 500-8 lunchbox®; the 505 DI direct input, which like the module-based API 205, accepts a guitar, bass or keyboard direct input while minimizing any loading effect on Hi-Z instrument pickups; and the 565 Filter Bank module with circuits that are true to the musical filters of the famed 215 module found in large format API consoles.
ABOUT API (AUTOMATED PROCESSES, INC.) Established more than 40 years ago, Automated Processes, Inc. is the leader in analog recording gear with the Vision, Legacy Series and 1608 recording consoles, as well as its classic line of modular signal processing equipment. www.apiaudio.com
