AEQ CAPITOL IP PLUS Ultra-compact digital audio mixer for radio and television, table-top black

AEQ CAPITOL IP PLUS Ultra-compact digital audio mixer for radio and television

The console comes as table-top in black with 10 faders (control surface and core unit)

Please note, that the option AoIP Dante module with 16 or 32 channels is mandatory - kindly check related items!

The Dante AoIP module is necessary to connect with the new Core and benefit from the additional Mic Input, Headphone I/O and also the Bluetooth connectivity.

The AEQ CAPITOL IP PLUS is a new digital audio broadcast mixing console, specifically designed for ON AIR control but adapts to a diversity of
workflows and functionalities. It incorporates all the basic features required for such operations : automatic monitor muting, cough muting, fader start, control signalling,
control signals for automating external equipment, external communications management, talkback or intercom functions, and many more.

• Digital audio mixer with IP connectivity for ON AIR broadcast applications
• Audio processing: 4-band parametric equalizer, filters, and dynamics
• Ergonomic surface with a touchscreen
• Up to 32 sum-buses for program outputs, ancillaries, monitoring, and clean feeds
• Virtual Capitol option, enabling remote control from a parallel control surface on a PC
• Equipped with Bluetooth for phone connections or stereo audio playback

Virtual Capitol: tool for remote control

To operate the console remotely, or in parallel with its control, simply use the “Virtual Capitol” app. This App shows an exact representation of the control surface. It includes all the physical controls available on the real console surface, as well as most of the advanced functions: control faders and audio channels, modify equalisations, gains, balance/panorama, save or load memories, activate special functions from programmable keys and even manage incoming phone calls.
