Vision+ Console

Recording Console

From API:

A major evolution of the legendary Vision console. The Vision+ delivers cutting-edge features and greater functionality, with a proven analog in-line signal path available in 32, 48, 64, 80, or 96 channel frame sizes -- continuing API's standard for world-class analog audio production.

API's Vision+ responds to the major advances in digital audio, music recording, media production, and stereo and surround mixing. Digital media demands a new level of performance, reliability and flexibility from the professional tools used to create audio masters. From the mic amps and equalizers, to the signal processing devices and right through the bus and routing structures of an audio console, we applaud the rising levels of sonic expectation today's audio performances demand. Accordingly, API proudly presents the third version of their flagship Vision recording and mixing console (Vision+), built to the same exacting standards of reliability, sonic performance, and investment grade audio that has made the API consoles the standard of modern recording consoles. Vision+ is dedicated to all those who hear, appreciate, and demand the best.

The Vision+ is the latest evolution of API’s flagship stereo and surround mixing and recording console. The Vision+ features dual audio path channel architecture, a 24-bus multitrack routing matrix, independent stereo and surround program bus assignments, and independent panning on each fader. Comprehensive channel and central facilities. Unlike many other large-format consoles, both channel faders are fully automatable, along with several switched channel functions like aux on/off, insert in/out, and EQ bypass via comprehensive integration with API’s Final Touch Automation® system.
