Crest Audio Introduces HP-W Professional Mixing Console

January 19, 2006

Crest Audio proudly introduces the HP-W professional mixing console, a continuation of its celebrated, feature-packed HP-Eight Series consoles. The HP-W is available in 28-, 36- and 44-standard mono input frames – with four full stereo channels, eight mono Automix channels and two stereo line returns – making this console ideal for both mixed music and spoken word applications.

The HP-W mixing console combines Crest Audio's legendary sound and build quality with sought-after features such as four-band, double-swept mid EQ; eight analog subgroups; 100 mm faders; two-channel matrix; full talkback and monitor systems; and eight-scene mute. This quality console also includes 10 aux sends on each input channel with fader flip functions for use as a monitor mixer, plus four stereo line input channels with EQ, assignment and aux sends capable of handling dual-mono or split-track signals.

Also standard on all HP-W consoles are eight mono channels of Automix for "hands-off" spoken word mixing. Automix is a gain-sharing protocol that allows increased gain before feedback. Engaging the Automix priority switch will greatly reduce comb filtering by turning down unused or low priority inputs. HP-W consoles also include four stereo channels; a stereo ambient mic input; and two alternate outputs with processing.
