The Phoenix Audio Theata is a distinctive professional audio product designed for the studio, live, and broadcast markets. It addresses the growing demand for high-quality amplification for electronic instruments, synthesizers, electronic drums, and more.
Key Features
- Versatile Instrument Pre-amplification: The Theata is designed to maintain the sonic integrity of instruments while enhancing the sound with high-quality analog circuitry. It includes custom-designed and wound transformers that add color and tone to enrich the instrument’s characteristics.
- Ultra-High Impedance Input Amplification: The Theata features ultra-high impedance input amplification to capture every syllable and frequency of an instrument. This high impedance ensures a wide frequency response, preventing the loss of natural instrument characteristics and maintaining a lively and dimensional sound.
- Eight Channels with Active Electronics: The Theata provides eight channels, each treated as an individual channel strip with active electronics. This allows precise control with 30dB of gain, suitable for driving synths, enhancing guitars, and accommodating various instruments.
- Individual Channel Controls: Each channel has dedicated controls, including a 15dB pad for gain reduction, phase reverse, ground lift, and a variable high-pass filter with multiple frequency options for sound sculpting.
- Output Options: On the rear, the Theata offers 20 outputs, including 16 direct D-sub outputs (two for each channel), two XLR mix master outputs, and two master monitor outs.
- Routing Matrix: The Theata features a routing matrix for each channel, allowing flexible routing options to a master bus. This facilitates summing of channels, freeing up inputs on DAW interfaces or FOH, and enabling mixing of instruments. The master bus employs a Class A active high-gain voltage earth solution.
- Master Bus Options: The master bus provides various options, including main stereo output, additional left and right monitor outputs, stereo width effect for widening or narrowing the mix, and dedicated insert send and return connectors for outboard gear.
