D-8EX packs a lot of mixing power into a small space, making it an ideal companion in your remote truck or secondary on-air/production room.
With the D-8EX, you get 24 motorized-fader input channels, expandable to twice that number WITHOUT increasing the consoles footprint. A PAGE button on each channel permits you to access a second channel with full, immediate recall of that channels settings, bringing the total number of available channels to 48. It also features true surround, 4 sub-masters, 2 main buses, 2 aux sends, and extensive processing (4-band parametric EQ, filters, compressor/limiter).
This console also includes an intuitive touchscreen for extensive metering and control of lesser used, set-and-forget controls.
Like all Wheatstone television consoles, the D-8EX is a control surface; all audio I/O is housed in the Wheatstone Gibraltar IP Mix Engine or Gibraltar Network rackmount router/mixer.
