PreSonus's latest technology, Active Integration, runs on an advanced built-in computer system, helping each stage of your signal chain work together. Each channel's signal chain begins with a gain knob, an on/off Phantom power button and an optional recording buss send . From there, you can route the channel to each of the 14 aux busses pre- or post fader. Then your signal enters the virtual “Fat” channel strip, where you can perfect it with a polarity switch, high-pass filter, gate (frequency-controlled option), compressor, limiter and 4-band parametric equalizer-not to mention that at the press of a button, you can A/B your channel settings with the flat signal or another group of settings. You can then pan , assign to subgroups and manipulate the fader. This functionality can be applied to all 32 channels.
