Allen & Heath AHM-16 and AHM-32 Audio Matrix Processor

AHM is Allen & Heath's answer for installed audio that has to run itself: a fixed-architecture matrix processor with the set latency of a fixed design but the routing flexibility usually reserved for open-architecture DSP. The engines use next-generation FPGA hardware at a 96 kHz sample rate, which is where the sub-millisecond latency comes from.

Processing is generous rather than metered out. Every input channel gets an 8-band parametric EQ, gate, compressor, and delay. Every zone output gets 8-band PEQ, a 30-band graphic EQ, compressor, ambient noise compensation, source selector, limiter, and delay. The AHM-16 is a 16x16 matrix, the AHM-32 a 32x32; both take an SLink option card to reach the Everything I/O expander range, up to eight remote expanders in wall, rack, or portable form. Control comes from up to 96 IP remote controllers on a standard TCP/IP network, GPIO, third-party devices, the Custom Control app, or CC-7 and CC-10 touch panels.
