Soundcraft Delta AVe 1990s - Grey

Up for sale is a Soundcraft Delta AVe, a classic British-built modular analog console developed from the Delta 200 for video post production. This is the 16-input frame with a full set of mono input modules, four groups and the AVE master section, complete with its CPS450/B power supply. The Delta series has long been regarded as one of Soundcraft's best compact modular consoles, valued for its solid build, clean circuit design, flexible routing and a punchy, detailed sound. The AVe variant shares the same platform as the DLX, with the same sweepable 4-band EQ Every input channel has a VCA with an AV fade depth fader, so it can be driven by an edit controller. If you don't need that, the AVE switch on the master bypasses the VCA system and the desk works as a conventional console. Configuration 16 mono AVE input modules 4 group output modules (GP1-GP4), each with two returns, 2-band EQ and SUB/RET switching AVE master module with stereo mix outputs and inserts, 2-track returns, control room monitor outputs, headphone output, talkback and oscillator Soundcraft CPS450/B external power supply (all six rails lit on power-up: ±7.5V, +24V, +48V, ±17V) Input channel features Electronically balanced mic and line inputs, 48V phantom, phase reverse, 100Hz high-pass filter 4-band semi-parametric EQ Insert and unbalanced direct output on every channel 4 aux sends per channel, switchable to give 6 aux buses in total (aux 1/2 are pre-fader by default) Rear panel: XLR mic inputs, line/insert/direct output jacks per channel, group XLR outputs with tape returns and inserts, XLR mix outputs, 6 aux outputs, mix inserts, CR monitor outputs, and 15-way external control connectors. Condition: Cosmetic condition. The desk looks clean on the top; the rear panel and PSU show some dust and light wear. Soundcraft CPS450/B external power supply. All six DC rails (±7.5V, ±17V, +24V, +48V phantom) light up on power-up. Power section: Power: The CPS450/B is currently running on 240V mains. It has internal mains voltage selector switches for 100/120V or 220/240V operation, so it can be reset for other regions. The fuse rating differs by setting (T3.15A for 220/240V, T6.3A for 100/120V). Buyers outside 240V regions should have the voltage and fuse changed before connecting, or use a suitable transformer. Included: PSU, mains lead, multicore link lead between console and PSU Pickup only
