New Avid S3L Delivers the Hallmarks of Avid Live Systems in a Compact, All-New Networked Architecture
Burlington, MA, 2013/05/29
HDX-powered DSP engine, modular design, Ethernet AVB and EUCON open network standards redefine professional live sound mixing and recording
Avid® (NASDAQ: AVID) today introduced the new Avid S3L, which delivers the sound quality, performance, and features of Avid live systems in an all-new modular, networked design. The open and flexible system is comprised of a high-performance HDX-powered mix engine running VENUE software and AAX DSP plugins, scalable remote I/O, a compact EUCON-enabled control surface, and Pro Tools® software for integrated live sound mixing and recording.
For artists and musicians, S3L delivers the audio clarity and familiar studio processing they need to sound and perform at their best. For engineers, having a high-performance engine at the core empowers them to create richly layered mixes quickly and champion their clients' signature sounds, without worrying about technical limitations. The streamlined networked design simplifies system set-up and configuration with drag-and-drop functionality, while direct Pro Tools recording and mixing capabilities open opportunities for live album releases.
"Avid S3L delivers all of the renowned qualities that Avid live sound users have come to rely on in an all-new networked architecture," said Chris Gahagan, senior vice president of Products and Services at Avid. "This innovative system provides our customers with unmatched openness, flexibility, and efficiency to deliver their best sounding mixes anywhere, now and in the future, with uncompromising reliability and performance."
