A20-Nexus Go combines all of Sound Devices’ latest innovations into a portable, easy-to-use package with up to 8 channels of crystal-clear wireless signal in a convenient half-rack space. Sound Devices’ proprietary SpectraBand technology gives A20-Nexus an industry leading global tuning range of 169-1525 MHz, NexLink advanced long-distance modulation for increased range and signal stability, GainForward Architecture for streamlined gain control from the mixer, and an integrated Real Time Spectrum Analyzer (RTSA) for intuitive frequency coordination. The A20-TX digital wireless bodypack transmitter has a multipurpose input, flexible powering, and ultra-low-power e-Paper display.

In addition to the entire Astral family of wireless products, Sound Devices will also be demoing its 8-Series mixer-recorders and MixPre II series audio mixers, mainstays of professional sound engineers across the world. The 8-Series line is designed for professional workflows and offers robust recording power and features in a rugged, reliable device, including the Scorpio, 888, and 833. The MixPre II series is designed for more portable use, and features low-noise Kashmir preamps and a 32-bit float depth at 192 kHz sample rate for superior audio quality with maximum dynamic range in a package that can fit any kit bag.
