Description
Powered by the advanced 96 kHz XCVI FPGA engine, the Allen & Heath Avantis Solo is an advanced 64-channel / 42-bus configurable digital mixing console with a 15" touchscreen and a superflexible workflow. The mixer features extensive I/O options and can be upgraded with processing from the flagship dLive mixing system.
Continuity UI harnesses the power of the 15.6" Full HD (1080p) touchscreen to allow you to see and instantly interact with your most used parameters, enabling a seamless connection between the physical controls and the displays. The rear panel provides 6 XLR (Mic/Line) inputs and 6 XLR outputs as well as a stereo AES inputs and outputs. The SLink port allows you to connect to a multitude of hardware expansion options and controllers. Two I/O ports allow you to expand the Avantis even further with Dante, Waves, gigaACE, SuperMADI, and fibreACE cards.

Continuity UI
- With a 15.6″ Full HD touchscreen at the heart of the experience, Continuity UI allows you to see and instantly interact with more of what matters, enabling a seamless connection between the physical controls and the screen.
- The faders react on touch to immediately highlight the active channels for instant visual feedback.
- The channel rotaries let you work gains or pans at the touch of a button, dynamically foldiing the display to show EQ or compressor parameters across the whole bank.
- Each screen features a FastGrab tab on the right-hand side, giving you split-second access to key freely assignable parameters like aux sends, EQ, compressor, and FX on the currently selected or specific channel.
- The whole system is set up to dynamically display the information you need at any moment and put controls right at your fingertips.

I/O Expansion for All Applications
- Whether you’re an owner/operator looking to build a compact system, or a rental company with existing Allen & Heath stock, the SLink connection on Avantis Solo allows true flexibility by connecting to the entire range of Allen & Heath audio expander hardware.
- Add a Dante card to your system, and you’ve got even more options with A&H's dedicated Dante expanders, DT168 and DT164-W.
Well Connected with Dante, Waves, and More
- For local I/O, Avantis Solo is well equipped with XLR analog inputs and outputs, plus AES (stereo in, stereo out).
- Two additional I/O Ports allow Avantis Solo to benefit from the full range of current dLive option cards, including Dante (64×64 and 128×128), Waves, gigaACE, MADI, and more, expanding the scope for system integration, FoH / monitor splits, and multitrack recording.
Controllers
- Avantis Director—Avantis Director is a free Windows and Mac OS application enabling offline editing and online control capabilities.
- Avantis MixPad—Avantis MixPad is an engineer’s mixing tool, providing wireless mobile control for Allen & Heath Avantis digital mixers. It gives you the freedom to walk the room or stage and control the sound right where it is needed. Avantis MixPad and the Avantis mixer can work together to provide simultaneous control of independent functions, for example one engineer using the mixer to mix front-of-house sound, and another using the iPad to mix monitors onstage. Several iPads can be connected, each providing independent control.
- Avantis OneMix—OneMix is a cut-down version of the Avantis MixPad app that locks control to a single Aux (monitor) mix. Multiple iPads may be set up by the Admin user to give each musician customized personal monitor control via Wi-Fi connection to Avantis without the risk of affecting the other monitors or the FOH main mix. Avantis OneMix can be configured to provide as much or as little control as needed.
- IP Controllers—Avantis is compatible with our range of networkable, PoE compatible remote controllers, which can be programmed via the Avantis mixer or Director software, and configured to control any aspect of the system.
- Custom Control—Customizable cross-platform control app providing elegant, bespoke control over Avantis, dLive and AHM audio systems.
