The Audient EVO SP8 provides ultra-low latency performance delivering pristine sound thanks to the 24-bit/192kHz audio resolution. The eight EVO mic pres deliver exceptional warmth whilst remaining accurate and nuanced, providing up to 58dB of gain range.

Incorporating all the groundbreaking features of the EVO 16, the SP8 also includes eight line outputs as well as two optical I/O connections with ADAT. It also features a word clock input for syncing up external gear with the analog preamp. The new and improved design features a streamlined user interface in the form of 'Motion'.

A simple 'one-knob' control allows you to cycle between hardware features and settings with ease. One of the most groundbreaking features is the Smartgain Mode, which automatically sets the level of your microphones for the best possible sound. This makes setting up and recording quicker and easier than ever. Designed for studios; the EVO SP8 preamp can be rack-mounted using the optional brackets (not included), so it can be integrated within your current rack setup. The EVO SP8 preamp also comes complete with a Cubase LE and powerful plugins, providing everything you need to start recording music.
