The Sonifex AVN-PA8 is a web-enabled mix engine that allows you to stream any of its 8 analog stereo line inputs or 16 digital AoIP (Audio over Internet Protocol) input channels to any of its 8 analog line outputs or 64 AoiP streaming output channels, with the unit allowing you to alter the signal gain at the input, the mix point, or the output. A high-pass filter can also be applied to all inputs and outputs. This version features D-sub connectors for the analog inputs and outputs.
The AVN-PA8 supports the RAVENNA and AES67 protocols, and AoIP input streams are discovered and output streams are advertised using Avahi/Bonjour and SAP, allowing the unit to support AES67-enabled Dante networks. The flexible design allows the portal to be used in a variety of applications, including generating stereo clean feeds, sending IFB streams to connected beltpacks, 8-output zone mixing, and distributing mixes to headphone monitoring stations.
