As part of an expansion at the Antipodean education facility, SAE Melbourne has purchased and installed two Audient ASP4816s consoles. The Audient desks will be used for a teaching solution for the institutes Trimester 1 students.
Brad Toan, studio technician, said: “The Audient desks give commencing students an introduction to signal flow, basic patching, microphone techniques and a good insight into mixing - pan and level.â€
The new desks have been installed in identical studios, each exactly mirroring each other, creating a consistency between the two. The Audient ASP4816s consoles serve as a stepping stone before students move on to the large format ASP8024 48-channel Audient desk with Dual Layer Control previously purchased by SAE Melbourne.
