• 18x SoftKeys
• 8x LCD displays
• Free standing or flush mount
• PoE or wall wart

IP8

• 8x 60mm motor faders
• 22x SoftKeys

CUSTOM CONTROL APP

Designing the perfect user interface for each type of user has never been so easy. Custom Control is a customizable, cross-platform control app, providing elegant, bespoke control over an AHM-64 system.

• Multiple user interfaces (per user, per device type)
• Custom graphics and background
• Kiosk mode
• BYOD friendly
• Optional password protection
• iOS / Android / Windows / Mac

ACOUSTIC ECHO CANCELLATION

The Acoustic Echo Cancellation (AEC) module for AHM-64 provides 12 channels of AEC and is designed for teleconferencing and video conferencing scenarios.

SYSTEM MANAGER SOFTWARE UNCOMPROMISED POWER AND FLEXIBILITY

Intuitive AHM System Manager software and AHM-64’s flexible architecture allow rapid configuration, with no certified programming training required. AHM-64 strikes a balance between the simplicity and set latency of fixed architecture, and the flexibility normally reserved for open architecture platforms, allowing it to handle sound management, paging, audio distribution, conferencing and speaker processing roles.

AHM-64 deploys next-generation FPGA technology and 96kHz sample rate, bringing acclaimed Allen & Heath sound quality and sub-millisecond latency to installation. The audio engine has the power to deliver far more processing than the usual open architecture platforms, including 8-band PEQ, gate, compressor and delay on all input channels, and 8-band PEQ / 30-band GEQ, compressor, ANC, source selector, limiter and delay on all zone outputs.

Channels view
