Midas' VeniceF-16R is a 16-channel rack mount variant of its new "digi-log" compact mixing console, the VeniceF. Designed by Alex Cooper, the VeniceF-16R comes with FireWire multi-channel digital audio interface, the full functionality of the Midas XL3 EQ and filter section, Midas mic preamps, 100mm faders, increased channel and input count, a dual 7x2 matrix and a reorganized master section layout. It is also bundled with Propellerhead recording and processing trial software.
The VeniceF-16R's 16x16 FireWire capability adds 16 channels of multitrack recording and playback using any suitable FireWire-equipped computer, without the need for additional interfaces. This also offers the possibility of virtual soundchecking. Third-party plugins can be run as channel inserts and third-party effects routed via aux sends and returns. Inputs, groups, auxes, matrixes and masters can be routed to the FireWire interface.

 

The software bundle includes a 60-day trial version of Propellerhead's Record software (due to be superceded by Reason in the near future) and a low-latency Midas ASIO driver for PC and Mac. Record offers both multitrack record/edit/replay software and signal processing modules, including dynamics and reverbs which can be inserted into the VeniceF signal paths.

 

VeniceF-16R is presented in a rugged frame design and livery reminiscent of the Heritage Series.
