How to use

Install the Audient ASP880 into a standard 19-inch rack and connect each microphone to the corresponding input on the rear panel.

Route the converted digital signals or line outputs to your audio interface, mixer or recorder according to your setup. Use consistent gain staging for all channels to achieve balanced multitrack recordings.

Recommendations

For optimal results, use quality microphone cables and monitor levels when setting gain to maintain headroom. Pair the ASP880 with a compatible audio interface or recorder that accepts 24-bit/96 kHz signals. In multi-microphone sessions, record reference takes and check phase relationships between close and room mics to preserve clarity and imaging.
