Angel Studios’ Studio 2, has been busier than ever
over the last twelve months thanks largely to the Euphonix
System 5 console attracting a wide variety of new projects.
To further improve the appeal of the facility, increased
investment has seen the studio undergo a major upgrade to
Euphonix’s latest generation DF66 DSP SuperCore, the
first to be installed in Europe.
The new upgrade, comprising
of a 5 card DF66 engine, more than doubles the current channel
count to 168 fully resourced channels, with 48 Groups, 16
Mix busses and 24 Auxes and allows the console to work seamlessly
at 96kHz. It also significantly increases the I/O capability
up to 20 MADI inputs and outputs (1,280x1,280 signal paths),
all from a compact 4RU chassis, replacing 13RU of the original
system.

Angel senior engineer Steve Price said of the upgraded console: “With
the ever increasing demands made during recording and mixing,
the facilities and the ease of use that the Euphonix now
provides are second to none”
With a wealth of new features such as buss processing, increased
delay per channel and a platform for the renowned EuCon control
of DAWs, the upgrade is a very powerful and flexible DSP
solution that can be scaled up to meet any task, both in
the broadcast and audio post world.
Euphonix Sales Manager Mark Hosking stated “I’m
pleased that the introduction of the System 5 at Angel has
been such a success proving that large format digital consoles
have a place in the still analogue dominated music market.
This is the first DF66 upgrade in Europe and its great to see
that studio 2 continues to work as furiously as ever”. |
