MIDAS HD96-AIR-CC-IP Digital Mixer for Live Music

The {xxx_cvt_txt} takes the next step in the evolution of digital mixers — combining the iconic sound of the H3K and the engineering precision of the Heritage D Series with revolutionary portability. Finally, a {xxx_cvt_txt} you can take anywhere!
Designed for sound engineers who do not compromise on power, the HD96-AIR stands out with its high-brightness 21-inch multi-touch control screen and offers an extremely intuitive workflow in an ultra-light body.
All speed, all detail — now at your fingertips.

The HD96 platform is designed with the future in mind — and the HD96-AIR is the first real step of this vision.
The fully adjustable 21” Full HD multi-touch screen brings everything including faders, control groups, and channel parameters to your fingertips.
User-assignable buttons are placed exactly where they need to be, increasing instantaneous speed and precision on stage.
Thanks to its smart and space-saving design, the HD96-AIR carries all the power of the Heritage D Series in an ultra-light chassis.
With a flight case, it weighs under 30 kg in total, making it stage-ready wherever you take it.

At the heart of every {xxx_cvt_txt} mixer, there's only one thing that matters: Sound.
While other brands compromise, {xxx_cvt_txt} has always maintained its commitment to sound quality.
The Heritage D Series takes the legendary {xxx_cvt_txt} sound even further:
A new generation 64-bit summing engine provides more dynamic range, depth, and clarity than ever before.The secret of the {xxx_cvt_txt} sound; is that it provides full flexibility in a latency-compensated structure.
It offers a mix that breathes with natural warmth and extraordinary precision.
No complex filters. No incompatibility.
Just pure sound – anywhere, anytime.
Whether you are pushing the limits of the mix or carrying the smallest detail, it has never been easier to use a {xxx_cvt_txt}.
 

A new, intuitive, and easy-to-use variable phase feature per channel allows you to seamlessly mix audio sources with high/low phase transitions.
Whether making small alignment corrections or creative big touches — now you have the clarity and control to mix sounds.
 

New “tap-off” points have been added to the channels — allowing you to route the audio signal from any desired stage of the chain.
Thus, sending raw (unprocessed) signals to the stage becomes possible without affecting the main mix.
Like the HD96-24 model, the AIR model also offers post-insert fader tap points and a fully customizable signal processing chain.
Just drag, drop, and arrange as you wish.
 

The Shout Mixer allows you to easily create and save complex communication groups.
With 16 independent shout inputs and 12 custom outputs, you can set up powerful talkback systems without affecting your main input/output count. Whether during rehearsal or in the middle of a live performance;
you can instantly recall and change your communication settings thanks to immediate recall, creating a communication infrastructure as sharp as your mix.
