Allen & Heath IP8 Remote Controller for dLive, Avantis & AHM Systems

Allen & Heath IP8 Remote Controller for dLive, Avantis & AHM Systems designed for use with AHM matrix processors, dLive, and Avantis mixing systems—ideal for both live sound and installation environments. It features 8 motorized faders, 8 LCD displays, 23 backlit softkeys, and a dimmable display control. Each fader is fully assignable, either configured individually or grouped in vertical strips, with 6 control layers accessible via softkeys—providing control of up to 48 channels.

A secure Fast Ethernet connection is provided via a locking Neutrik EtherCon port, allowing direct connection to a dLive MixRack/Surface, Avantis mixer, or AHM-64 Matrix Processor through standard Cat 5 infrastructure. Alternatively, it can be networked with multiple controllers, computers, or third-party devices via an Ethernet switch. Programming is managed with AHM System Manager, dLive Director (Mac/Windows), or directly from an Avantis or dLive Surface. Power is supplied by an external 12 VDC PSU or PoE+.

Versatile Applications:

Surfaceless Mixing: Combine with a dLive MixRack and laptop to create a powerful, ultra-compact mixing rig.

Surface Extender: Expand dLive or Avantis setups by assigning the IP8 as a dedicated “sidecar” for masters or FX control.

Personal Monitoring: Configure the IP8 to give performers direct control over their IEM mixes.

Installations: Tailor access for day-to-day operators, such as controlling mic or music source levels in venues.
