• At the heart of every Midas console is what matters most—sound. While others compromise, Midas has never wavered in its commitment to audio excellence. With the Heritage D series, Midas has taken the legendary Midas sound even further, with a next-generation 64-bit summing engine that delivers greater dynamic range, depth, and clarity than ever before. 
• The key to the Midas sound is providing ultimate flexibility while still being delay compensated, delivering a mix that breathes with natural warmth and stunning precision, no comb filtering, and no inconsistencies. Get pristine audio everywhere, all the time—whether you're pushing the mix to its limits or riding the smallest detail. Driving a Midas has never been easier.

Flexi-Aux

The Flexi-Aux system opens up powerful routing possibilities including aux-to-aux sends for advanced group and stem-style mixing. Need to smash a drum kit with parallel compression and feed that exact sound to an artist's in-ears? Now you can. Flexi-Aux gives you the tools to mix the way you hear it—fast, flexible, and fully under your control.

Variable Channel Phase

The new intuitive, easy to use Variable Phase per channel is a powerful tool that allows sound sources to be blended seamlessly with high or low phase changes to mix signals, together in ways never achievable before. From subtle alignment tweaks to bold creative shifts, you can now seamlessly blend sound sources with precision, clarity, and control.

Tap Off Points

• New tap off points on channels have been introduced, giving you the freedom to route audio from any stage in the signal chain. Perfect for sending raw signals to stage without affecting your main mix. It's all about precision control without compromise. 
• As per the HD96-24, AIR features post-insert fader tap points alongside fully customizable processing chains. Just drag, drop, and reorder your signal flow exactly how you want it. It's all about precision control without compromise.

Shout Mixer

• The Shout Mixer allows complex communication groups to be effortlessly created and stored. With 16 independent shout inputs and 12 dedicated outputs, you can build flexible, powerful talkback systems that operate entirely outside your main I/O count.
• Whether it's soundcheck or mid-show, instant recall lets you switch between shout configurations in a heartbeat—so your comms are always as sharp as your mix.
