Neve 8424

Aux and Cue Sends The stereo cue send uses voltage mixing through Marinair® transformers, delivering the highest quality headphone mixes for performers and a host of secondary mix options. Three mono aux sends with level and pre/post fader options provide a comprehensive bus system for connecting to outboard FX units.

Inserts and Routing 24 switchable channel inserts are perfect for connecting outboard units directly to the console. The balanced inserts are connected via simple-input TRS connection , allowing producers to connect without a patchbay with current studio cabling.

The flexible insert options can route the insert to input C , allowing analogue outboard processing to be applied to all 48 console inputs.

Aux 2 and 3 can perform a second stereo cue mix function, with full talkback and monitoring capability for additional performers.

Console routing is handled by the backlit switching matrix , providing a fast and simple routing system for all console signal paths.

Dual front-mounted headphone outputs allow performers to record from the control room, connecting directly to the console with ease.

Create mono or stereo stems effortlessly with the group pan function .

Dual Input Channel Strip A key design concept of the 8424 console is the inclusion of a dual input channel strip . This feature allows for 24 DAW returns and 24 recording inputs to simultaneously connect to the console. Engineers can switch from record mode to mix mode at the push of a button. Each channel has a digitally-controlled trim encoder with independent recording and mixing trim levels, providing total accuracy and control over all incoming signals, perfect for stereo instruments and preamps. All 24 channels have a digitally-controlled direct output , allowing for a customisable recording setup built to your studio requirements. Expand the consoles recording capabilities by connecting existing studio preamps or by adding up to three Neve 1073OPX units.

Professional Solo System

The 8424 console features three professional solo modes found on large-format consoles. The Solo-in-Place (SIP) destructive solo mode preserves mix processing, while After-Fader Listen (AFL) and Pre-Fader Listen (PFL) non-destructive solo modes preserve the console outputs when recording. Global solo controls allow engineers to switch from latching to momentary, globally select AFL/PFL, or to reset all console solos. Channels, groups and reverb returns can be isolated from the solo system with the ISO function at the push of a button.

The 8424 console features numbered 100mm long-throw faders for easy mix navigation, delivering accurate ergonomic control of all console levels.
