The new model uses FPGA technology to process 128 audio channels at up to 96 kHz with latency below one millisecond and transparent sound. It operates in Audio over IP (AoIP) environments and includes AES67 as standard. ST 2110-30 compatibility is planned for future updates. The mixer has 32 analogue XLR inputs and 24 analogue XLR outputs and supports a wide range of remote I/O and stageboxes. Standard MADI I/O and three Ethernet ports are included. An optional expansion card adds Dante.

For studio and hybrid use, low-latency 64 × 64 drivers connect the interface to any DAW for recording, broadcasting and virtual soundchecks. Redundant power and automatic recovery after a restart or power failure are included. There are two independent 6.3 mm headphone sockets and USB-A and USB-C ports. An HTML5 web interface provides simple setup and control from any computer or tablet. The system can also be configured for a dedicated control surface.
