Designed for adverse environments and mission-critical applications:
Extensive RF shielding is provided on audio and digital feeds to eliminate the possibility of cellular interference. Designed to withstand continuous operating temperatures up to 150°F, the HV-316/8 can be powered by both 12VDC and worldwide 90–240V AC with fail-safe operation.
Acclaimed Millennia remote preamps:
Millennia remote preamps can seamlessly operate on a single Ethernet network — up to 384 redundant audio channels — letting you remotely control Gain, Polarity, Pad, Mute, channel Linking, HPF, and selectable ribbon or phantom paths on every channel. You also have unlimited scene recall scripting and virtual scribble strips.
Next-gen 192kHz A/D conversion:
The HV-316/8 uses eight channels of meticulously integrated, next-generation AKM 192kHz A/D converters, multi-paralleled for extreme dynamic range performance and acclaimed Millennia sonics. All internal processing is achieved via a generic plug-and-play Linux Beagle processor to ensure non-obsolescence and easy field replacement. To say that engineers at Sweetwater are impressed with the Millennia HV-316/8 would be an understatement. With its bulletproof build, audiophile sonics, and innovative remote control capabilities, it’s a stunning technological achievement.
