Waves Audio Exhibits IONIC 16 at InfoComm Waves Audio is exhibiting IONIC 16, a 16-in / 12-out SoundGrid stagebox with Waves Signature Preamps, at InfoComm, Booth 5868. The IONIC 16 delivers superb sound quality, with uncompromising punch and clarity in any live sound scenario. IONIC 16 is designed to elevate your sound and complement the already exceptional sonic performance of the Waves eMotion LV1 live mixer, the company says. At the heart of IONIC 16's pristine sound and unmatched performance are Waves Signature Preamps -- newly designed with fully discrete high-end analog circuits, delivering maximum headroom, lightning-fast transient response, and an incredibly low noise floor. Able to handle any signal you throw at them with full confidence, these preamps feature a gain structure meticulously designed to deliver a wide dynamic range and handle bigger signals, with practically no restraints. The result is plenty of headroom, transients that do not clip, and an extremely low noise floor -- for an incredibly clean, punchy sound. Waves Signature Preamps deliver timeless analog warmth -- a rich, full-bodied sound usually found only in high-end mixing consoles, without compromising any of the punch or clarity, using its analog modeled HMX harmonic enhancer. The harmonic enhancer can also be turned on or off per input, with 'off' providing a more neutral sound. The IONIC 16 delivers crystal clear outputs with extra headroom. Whether you are powering stage wedges that compete with the drummer, a full rack of in-ears transmitters, or a PA system of any size or quality, IONIC's 12 powerful outputs and two independent headphone-outs deliver super-clear results with plenty of headroom. IONIC 16 also enables users to get more out of your stage mics: its preamp section's analog impedance selector allows you to choose the mic reaction you want. Users can choose between a classic 2kO and a modern 7kO, for greater sonic flexibility. IONIC 16 provides seamless integration and connectivity to any eMotion LV1 system, ensuring quick and easy setup without wasting time on manual configurations. IONIC's control panel is available in the LV1's device rack, letting you control various parameters in your preamps and outputs directly from the mixer, without missing a beat, the company says.
