APHEX MODEL 828 ANACONDA
August 2007—Unveiled at last fall's AES show in San Francisco, Aphex (www.aphex.com) is now shipping its Model 828 Anaconda, a 64-channel, bi-directional snake that interfaces the company's 1788A remote-controlled preamps to consoles, DAWs and recorders. The first permanent install went into KCET Los Angeles, the country's largest public TV station, linking the studio to a Yamaha digital console in its control room 400 feet away using a high-speed fiber line that also carries control (transport, gain, etc.) and metering data to/from the 1788A preamps. Recent interface/converter peripherals for the Anaconda system include the Model 141 8-channel ADAT-to-analog converter, the Model 142 8-channel analog-to-ADAT converter and the bi-directional Model 144, an AES-to-ADAT and ADAT-to-AES interface that converts four stereo pairs of AES or S/PDIF to/from eight ADAT-format channels.
APHEX MODEL 828 ANACONDA
May 2007—Engineered as an easy, cost-effective way to connect its 1788A remote-controlled preamp to any digital record/mix system, Aphex Systems' Model 828 Anaconda 64-channel digital snake has two identical interface units on either end of a high-speed fiber run. Each interface has eight ADAT I/Os, word clock distro via eight BNCs and RJ-45s for Ethernet control and metering of the preamps. Two fiber transceivers and dual redundant power supplies are provided, with auto failure switching.
APHEX 64X64 ANACONDA
October 2006—The 64x64 Anaconda digital snake from Aphex can be used stand-alone or paired with the company’s 1788A preamp. Features include eight ADAT I/Os (64-channel bi-directional), eight word clock outputs, word clock reference input, Ethernet connector for control and metering, and fully redundant power supply and fiber systems.
APHEX MODEL 230 BROADCAST TALENT VOICE PROCESSOR
December 2004—Aphex's Model 230 Broadcast Talent Voice Processor (aka “kitchen sink”) throws every trick in the book at a vocal mic. This single-channel unit includes the company's RPA tube mic pre, Easyrider compression, Logic-assisted gating, a threshold-adjustable de-esser, parametric EQ, and Aural Exciter and Big Bottom effects. Finishing it off are 24/96 A/D conversion and an insert point should you need a bit more analog mojo.
APHEX MODEL 1788
July 2004—The 8-channel Model 1788 Microphone Preamp ($4,995) and Model 1788RC Remote Controller ($1,499) from Aphex create a capable preamplification system with both analog and optional digital outputs. Besides eradicating noise problems associated with long cable runs, the 1788 eliminates the need for splitter boxes by providing five outputs — two analog and three digital — that are simultaneously usable. The flexible system is controllable via the Model 1788RC, a PC running Aphex's 1788SW controller software or through any device generating MIDI, such as a MIDI controller, console, sequencer or show control system. The two-rackspace Model 1788 offers balanced Jensen transformer-coupled mic preamps and includes a unique microphone output limiter, 26dB pad, adjustable maximum output level, a 700Hz test-tone generator, comprehensive LEDs and a front panel headphone output. The unit's optional digital output module features 24-bit AES/EBU, TDIF and ADAT optical capability. The Model 1788RC's MIDI-protocol remote control offers adjustment of all parameters, setups, snapshots and preset recalls, and up to 16 units — 128 channels — can can be controlled with only one control line.
