Revolution 14x16 Key Features
Integrated authoring preamps
Channels 1 and 2 are equipped with Black Lion Audio's Auteur preamps, offering low gain for fast, American-style response and high gain for warm, colorful sounds. These preamps feature Cinemag transformers for harmonic richness and musical saturation when pushed.
Unrivalled connectivity and expandability
The Revolution 14x16 offers four mic/instrument preamps, accessible from the front or rear, switchable inserts/returns, S/PDIF connections and the option of adding additional inputs/outputs via ADAT (Revolution EXP extension).
Versatile monitoring and display
Three powerful headphone amps ensure high-quality monitoring. The Mix Edit function enables ultra-low-latency custom mixing, combining hardware inputs and software playback. A bright 8-segment display monitors input and output levels.
Precise synchronization
Patented Macro-MMC technology delivers optimum synchronization with low phase distortion and ultra-low jitter, guaranteeing high-frequency clarity. It also accepts clock input via BNC for those using an external clock.
Uncompromising construction
High-end components (Vishay, Nichicon, Wima) for optimum signal-to-noise ratio, low-noise power supply and complete disconnection of analog inputs/outputs to minimize noise.
Software suite included
The Revolution Software Suite includes PreSonus Studio One Pro+ (90 days), Sonarworks SoundID Reference (90 days), Audified GK Amplification 3 LE, Audified Mixchecker, and Psychic Modulation EchoMelt3.
