New Axia Consoles Get Small

---
12 March 2007, Cleveland, Ohio USA 
“Axia clients asked us for a ‘mini-Element;’ a console 
		with a smaller footprint and just a few faders, suitable for use in news 
		booths, dubbing stations and as workstation mixers,” says Axia president 
		Michael “Catfish” Dosch. “Now we offer Element in configurations as 
		small as two faders, in a very small package.” 
Broadcasters love Element, a highly-configurable modular 
		console designed to be equally at-home in air studios and production 
		rooms. In the two years since its introduction, clients have made it the 
		fastest-growing broadcast console brand in the world, with over 400 
		studios now on-air. 
The new Element 2-Fader+Monitor module allows Axia 
		clients to order Element consoles in compact sizes of 2 to 10 faders — 
		perfect for space-sensitive applications. The new module combines two 
		fader strips with overbridge alphanumeric displays and Status Symbols™ 
		with a comprehensive two-space Monitor/Options section, all of which fit 
		into a single four-position module. 
Element modular control surfaces are available in sizes 
		from 2 to 40 faders, and include powerful features to satisfy even the 
		most demanding air and production applications: 4 Program buses, 4 Aux 
		Send buses, 2 Aux Returns, automatic mix-minus and dedicated talkback 
		functions on every fader, one-touch Record Mode for fast off-air 
		recording, and instant recall of talent preferences. Element also 
		features 3-band digital parametric EQ that can be applied to any source, 
		and onboard voice processing with compression and de-essing tools 
		designed by Omnia. 
Axia IP-Audio systems allow broadcasters to build audio 
		networks using standard Ethernet to connect a few rooms or an entire 
		facility. Axia networks can carry tens of thousands of digital stereo 
		audio channels over CAT-6 cable, dramatically lowering labor and 
		equipment costs. Axia includes a family of “audio nodes” that make it 
		easy to interface with digital, analog, microphone and PC audio sources. 
The new Element 2-Fader+Monitor Module debuts at NAB 
		2007, and will ship during the 3rd Quarter of 2007. For more 
		information, contact Clark Novak at Axia Audio, or visit
