2400 Audio Imperium 1U Stereo Monitor Controller - White

Digitally controlled passive stereo monitor console

The 2400 Audio Imperium 1U is a digital controlled passive stereo monitor console. The circuit is fully balanced from input to output. Since all audio processing is done 100% passively without any transistors, op-amps or other regulatory framework, you hear a full, uncolored performance without noise floor or headroom limitation, exactly what you need in a professional mixing and mastering environment! With its eight stereo outputs, a fully expanded unit is also very suitable for showrooms or studios with a vast amount of active speakers.

The eight reference levels ensure that you can always recall your favorite mix levels quick and easy, at high, mid and low volume. Plus, you also get rock solid stereo imaging with extreme accuracy. It will make you work differently, more focused and effective than with a conventional volume control. You can get back to exactly the same mix the next day or the week after and be sure that it is the same listening experience every time. Again, this is very important when doing your final mix or mastering, which is rarely finished in one day.

Imperium also features a flash memory for storing your favorite settings for the unit. You can program which inputs have Level Bypass function enabled, or which outputs have the Parallel Output on by default. The firmware is upgradable.

Control Imperium via MIDI from a MIDI controller or send WiFi from an iPad/iPhone using Touch OSC to your mac or PC. Then forward the MIDI data to the Imperium.
