DiGiCo Quantum 7 Digital Mixing Console – MADI and One Multi-Mode Optic Loop HMA
DiGiCo Quantum 7 Digital Mixing Console – MADI and One Multi-Mode Optic Loop HMA
The fastest, smartest console ever created, Quantum 7 delivers the functionality, audio performance, and sheer scale required to deliver the largest productions now and in the future. With Quantum 7, you have the power to tackle any challenge and truly own the room.
Built to exceed the ambitions of tomorrow’s touring productions, Quantum 7 breaks the barrier of seventh-generation FPGA technology to deliver a dramatic leap forward in power and connectivity. All of this can be added to your existing SD7 surface, ensuring rental partners benefit from an even longer return on investment.
Quantum 7 places the world’s most flexible and feature-rich mixing experience at your fingertips. Standard channel processing across both inputs and outputs includes Channel Delay, DiGiTuBe, Single and Multi-Channel Presets, Dual insert points, Hi- and Lo-pass filters at 24dB/octave, four-band parametric EQ (eight on outputs) with band curve selection and Dynamic EQ on each band, DiGiCo’s DYN 1 (Compressor, De-esser or Multiband Compressor) and DYN 2 (Gate, Compressor or Ducker).
Features:
- An ARM processor handles communications between the host PC and the FPGA core, acting as a translator for the work surface flow.
- Three fourth-generation SHARCS control the interpolation algorithms in the FPGA, producing a warm analog feel.
- Nodal Processing: Allows creativity not only on channels but also on each node of an aux buss, giving flexibility to monitor engineers and sound designers.
- True Solo: Replicates any section of the console through the operator’s monitoring system, ensuring accuracy in how the source is processed and heard.
