The ultimate studio preamp expander is here. EVO SP8 is designed to be the perfect partner for expanding your existing audio interface. Give your studio the performance and capability boost it needs, providing eight intelligent EVO Preamps that set their own levels with Smartgain, advanced AD/DA converter technology and a versatile range of I/O connectivity. Add to that two JFET instrument inputs, the all new, groundbreaking Motion UI control system and exceptional audio performance across the board. The EVO SP8 might just be the world's smartest Mic Preamp.

The perfect partner for your audio interface
Bigger sessions demand more channels and expanding your existing audio interface via ADAT might be the most cost effective solution to scale up your studio. EVO SP8 provides eight mic/line inputs, eight line outputs and 2 x ADAT connections, giving you enough I/O firepower to easily tackle multi-mic sessions like recording drums, or taking on a full band.

Better converters = better audio
In the studio, sound is everything and EVO SP8's high performance AD/DA converters use 32-bit technology to make sure you hear your audio accurately at all times, whether you're recording music or sending audio to your favourite outboard gear and back when mixing. Better converters mean better audio - helping you make creative decisions confidently, identify issues and improve your overall recording and mixing game.

A total gain-changer
Make recording drums and larger sessions easy with Smartgain. Automatically set the gain for all eight channels at once with a simple touch of a button. Powered by the lightning quick Smartgain algorithm, Smartgain uses advanced peak analysis to automatically analyse, adjust and set your gain to the perfect levels - all in less than 20 seconds! Now it's up to you to figure out what to do with all that time you're saving.
