A complete, networked, mixing and recording system.

Get rid of that heavy analog snake and take control of your mixes with the PreSonus® StudioLive® AVB 64AI Mix System, which combines two cascaded StudioLive RML32AI rack mixers, StudioLive CS18AI Ethernet/AVB control surface, and integrated control, recording, and production software. Scalable, fully recallable, networked over AVB Ethernet, and tightly integrated with included software, the StudioLive AVB 64AI Mix System puts your I/O in an onstage, rack-mount mixer with Wi-Fi and Ethernet networking, while providing an advanced control surface at front-of-house with 18 touch-sensitive, motorized faders and 4x2 I/O.

StudioLive RM: Versatile and flexible for live and recorded sound.

The heart of the StudioLive AVB 64AI Mix System, the two PreSonus StudioLive RML32AI rack-mount Active Integration digital mixers provide a versatile and flexible solution for live sound and recording. Each of these versatile 25-bus mixers offers 32 input channels, for a total of 64 input channels. Each channel can accept a signal from either a dedicated analog input or a digital input via FireWire or AVB. StudioLive RML32AI mixers are flawlessly integrated with state-of-the-art software and boast an integrated 80x66 recording interface, advanced AVB networking, and multiple control options. Yet they’re easy to use, with a workflow that will let you focus on mixing, without being distracted by the technology.

StudioLive CS18AI: Powerful, intuitive network control.

Equipped with 100 mm, touch-sensitive, motorized faders and AVB networking, the StudioLive CS18AI control surface provides a compact, intuitive mixing solution for the StudioLive RM16AI rack-mount digital mixers and Studio One® digital audio workstation. The CS18AI connects to the network with a CAT5e or CAT6 Ethernet cable, eliminating the need for cumbersome analog or digital snakes and stage boxes, and offers a host of other useful features. It adds up to a powerful mix control system with a fast, intuitive workflow and the latest networking technology.

Built-in AVB-networked audio.

Through the power and flexibility of AVB audio networking, the StudioLive CS18AI can not only transmit control data but can also send and receive audio channels across long distances. You get two mic/line inputs with PreSonus’ remote-controllable XMAX preamps and two line inputs that you can use as sources for the talkback, 2-track playback, or other sources from front-of-house. The CS18AI’s two TRS line-level returns are shared with the monitor line outputs and headphone output and can be sourced from any StudioLive RML-series mixer output, including the solo bus, main mix, or any aux mix.

Learn more about AVB.

AVB (Audio Video Bridging) is a collection of IEEE 802.1 networking standards that has increased the capacity for information exchange, support, and audio/video product standardization. The promise of AVB is a single digital network to transmit audio, video, and other forms of data via “smart” switches that can process AVB traffic without compromising network integrity. AVB comes standard with StudioLive CS18AI control surfaces and StudioLive RML-series mixers.

Integrated, multiplatform software for flexible control and one-click recording.

Learn more about controlling Studio One with the StudioLive CS18AI.

Unlike DAW controllers that give you some faders and generic controls that try to do too much with too little, the StudioLive CS18AI provides extensive hardware control for Studio One. Control channel faders and automation, PreSonus and third-party plug-ins, transport control, and more. Controlling Studio One with a CS18AI is like mixing with a large studio console—but more flexible.
