The Producer's Desk adds a dedicated horizontal work surface at console height for keyboard, mouse, or a DAW controller, integrating the hybrid studio workflow directly into the console's physical footprint. All signal path specifications, preamp circuit, EQ topology, Retro Iron mix bus, and VCA bus compressor are identical to the standard 36-channel configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eProducer's Desk — Hybrid Workflow at the Centre of the Console\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe PD module occupies one standard bay width and presents a flat, ergonomically matched working surface at the same angle and height as the rest of the console. In its classical use, the producer occupied the PD for session notes and score annotation alongside the engineer; in a modern hybrid studio it becomes the mounting point for a keyboard, trackball, or DAW controller, eliminating a side table or separate keyboard stand from the room plan. Two PD modules side by side (Double-PD) can accommodate larger touch surfaces such as the Slate Raven or Avid S3. The PD bay can be positioned at any point in the console structure — centrally or as a side position for an assistant — specified at order. The module includes a walnut scripting tray consistent with the Heritage Edition finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eIn-Line at 36 Channels and Retro Iron Mix Bus\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe in-line architecture delivers 80 inputs to the stereo bus at mixdown: two independent signal paths per channel (long fader for mic\/line, short fader for DAW or tape return) plus four stereo returns in the master section — the figure from which the ASP8024 name derives. The four-band Dearden EQ with two fully parametric mid bands (40 Hz–20 kHz, ±15 dB, variable Q) and two shelving bands is splittable per channel independently. Retro Iron on the stereo bus output — Carnhill transformer and John Hardy 990C — delivers +28 dBu into 600 Ω at the mix insert send with Low Bump and High Lift EQ before the output faders. The VCA stereo bus compressor with adjustable threshold, ratio, auto-release, and GR metering operates post-insert, pre-fader. Fourteen aux sends (12 mono plus 2 cue), 8 subgroups, 36 record buses, and Penny \u0026amp; Giles 8000 series faders throughout. Supplied with a single ASP8120 Ultra power supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e36-channel in-line, 24-bus routing, 80 inputs to stereo bus at mixdown\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eProducer's Desk module: full-width horizontal work surface in one bay, walnut scripting tray included\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePD accommodates keyboard, mouse, trackball, or DAW controller; Double-PD available for larger surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e36 discrete Class A mic preamps (Dearden design)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e4-band splittable EQ per channel: 2 parametric bands (40 Hz–20 kHz, ±15 dB, variable Q) + 2 shelving\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eRetro Iron: Carnhill transformer + John Hardy 990C output amplifier, Low Bump \/ High Lift EQ on mix bus, +28 dBu into 600 Ω at mix insert send\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eVCA stereo bus compressor — adjustable threshold, ratio, auto-release, GR meter\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e14 aux sends (12 mono + 2 cue), 8 subgroups, 4 stereo FX returns, 36 record buses\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e5 pairs of monitor outputs (Main + 3 Alt + Studio LS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePenny \u0026amp; Giles 8000 series faders throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSemi-modular layout — three 12-channel bays + master + PD, each independently serviceable\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSingle ASP8120 Ultra power supply (included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eBuilt to order: PD position, DLC, patchbay, VESA mount, armrest, top trim all configurable\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eChannels: 36 (80 inputs in in-line configuration) + Producer's Desk module\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eBuses: 24-bus, 8 subgroups, 14 aux (12 mono + 2 cue), 36 record buses\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eFrequency response, mic in to mix out: +0 \/ -0.3 dB, 20 Hz–20 kHz (at 6–40 dB gain)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eFrequency response, line in to mix out: +0 \/ -0.3 dB, 20 Hz–20 kHz (at 0 dB gain)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eTHD+noise at +20 dBu output (mic in): below 0.005% at 1 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eTHD+noise at +20 dBu output (line in): below 0.005% at 1 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eTHD+noise at +20 dBu output (tape in): below 0.003% at 1 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMic EIN (20–20 kHz, 150 Ω source): below -127.5 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eBus noise (no inputs routed): below -93 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eBus noise (36 inputs routed): below -78 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMic CMRR: 70 dB (min gain) \/ 75 dB (max gain)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCrosstalk \/ mute attenuation (short fader, long fader, mix assign, bus assign): above 90 dB at 1 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaximum output into 2 kΩ (mix, bus, aux): above +26 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMix insert send headroom: +28 dBu into 600 Ω\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDimensions: approx. 239.0 x 106.5 x 99.9 cm (36 Ch + PD configuration)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eWeight: approx. 166 kg (365 lbs)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePower: 1x ASP8120 Ultra (included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"AUDIENT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53985701101905,"sku":"27741","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/AudientASP8024HeritageEdition72ChInlineConsole_ef0a7991-a390-4e19-9aac-466744cc366f.jpg?v=1781028068","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/products\/audient-asp8024-heritage-edition-36-ch-console-producer-desk","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
