828 Anaconda Digital Snake

The Anaconda Model 828 is comprised of two identical units on either end of a high speed fiber run. There are eight ADAT optical inputs and outputs on each unit. Each unit has an ultra-precision crystal generating internal word clock; selectable external word clock is fed through one BNC with selectable 75 W or high input impedance; word clock distribution through eight BNCs; and one RJ-45 for control and metering/status feedback of Aphex 1788A's. Each unit has two fiber transceivers with automatic failure switching for redundancy. The transceivers use industry standard SC connectors for use with low cost, readily available multimode fiber. Two internal power supplies automatically switch if one fails. The units are designed to be mounted in the rear of a rack for ease of connection and space efficiency.

240 Dual Logic Gated Compressor

THE MODEL 240 combines elements of Aphex’ famous Logic-Assisted gate (as found on the Aphex Models 230 and 622) and our Easyrider® automatic compressor models.

The Logic-Assisted Gate technology provides the most reliable, accurate, and stable operation of any gate. The patented circuitry (U.S. Patent 5,334,947) is designed to never false trigger, click or chatter. Once triggered, even by a microscopic transient, the gate progresses through its attack, hold and release sequence.

Controls on the gating portion of the Model 240 include Threshold, Attack, Hold, Release, and Depth.

Unlike most combined gate/compressor devices, the Model 240 is designed to have both technologies work as a seamlessly integrated system. When the Logic-Assisted gate activates, the Easyrider compressor is prevented from releasing. This avoids the conflicting nature of the compressor attempting to raise signal level while the gate attempts to reduce it. The gain reduction is‘frozen’ until the gate is opened again.

Controls in the compressor section of the Model 240 include Drive, Speed (the baseline release rate of the compressor), and Output. Each channel on the 240 may be used independently or the two channels may be linked for stereo processing.

A front panel multicolored LED bar graph meter displays either peak output level or gain reduction

228 Audio Interface

This is not just a buzzword at Aphex. Our products are known around the world for their ultra high sound quality. It's our benchmark. Given that the Model 228 is a relatively simple product, nothing more than a level interface, we placed a high priority on endowing it with the best sound quality possible. That's why we designed it with high voltage impedance balanced outputs and ground loop isolating unbalanced inputs. The audio circuitry was carefully crafted throughout to maximize sonic performance. There are no cookbook circuits in the 228.

207D Tube Microphone/Instrument Preamplifier
The affordable 207D takes Aphex’ popular Model 207 and adds AES/EBU and S/PDIF digital outputs for direct digital connection throughout your signal chain, with up to 96kHz sampling rates. The new 207D also adds Word Clock in/out for digital clocking synchronization. The 207D is an audiophile quality two-channel tube mic preamp that meets or exceeds the performance of preamplifiers costing many times more. It also offers instrument inputs that are quieter and have more gain than conventional instrument preamps.
