The 88 Custom is a configuration variant of the 88 Console. Using an extruded rail mounting system for Input, and Master Section buckets, the 88C can easily adapt to any size and configuration. Including a producer desk option which could accommodate multiples or custom widths for integration of additional options.<\/p>\n
All supported by a custom stand system which can also easily scale its width to fit any configuration adaptation.<\/p>\n
The Trident 88 Custom is a classically styled, in-line, eight-buss analog console and an advancement in lineage of the revered Series 80 mixing desks.
\nDesigned with manufacturability in mind, the 88C is artfully constructed for ease of use and workhorse reliability.<\/p>\n
The 88 Custom is sized to fit the modern, high end facility \u2013 whether private, institutional, or professional.<\/p>\n
Along with the pleasingly familiar routing and feel of a classic Trident desk, are modern refinements that serve to improve functionality, workflow and performance specifications.<\/p>\n
For example, integration with outboard processors and mic pre\u2019s, such as the 500 format, is provided simply and elegantly by means of an exclusive, switchable input. This bypasses the channel preamp circuitry and allows for insertion of external signal sources directly to the channel equalizer.<\/p>\n
Being a Trident, the equalization is of course, wonderful, and on the 88C \u2013 it is also plentiful. Always available on the channel, monitor, effects returns and group sections.<\/p>\n
In the area of customization, the 88C has options for VU metering, transformer I\/O\u2019s, automation, and frame configurations incorporating inline DAW controllers like the Avid S6, S3, or the Slate Raven.<\/p>\n
Features found throughout the 88C make for a straightforward and powerful package, but paramount to all else is The Sound. Among the many styles, preferences and methods of recording exists the expectation that a board must have the ability to be pushed hard and sound big. With 27dB of headroom, the 88C is designed to be pushed hard and sound big. This is a hallmark of the series 80 consoles and the 88C carries that tradition forward.<\/p>\n
Bottom line: The Trident 88 Custom was created with all of this in mind so that you can use it to make great sounding tracks.<\/p>\n
Fully Modular Design:<\/p>\n
Designed with manufacturability in mind.<\/p>\n
The Trident 88 Custom was made from the ground up to be a rugged and reliable console. We went to great lengths to make sure that the 88C\u2019s are easy to build and equally easy to maintain. The 88C is designed so that the entire console can be serviced with a single screw driver. Motherboards are shock-mounted with rubber standoffs to isolate them from the chassis and provide additional protection from structure born stresses. A channel can be swapped in matter of minutes and the console will continue to function if one or more channels are removed.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Faders, channels, groups, and master section are individually removable.
\n\u2022 All rear connections are also removable.<\/p>\n
Split\/Inline Console:<\/p>\n
Having a Split\/Inline console effectively will double your inputs to your stereo buss. This has become more and more a common configuration for recording consoles in today\u2019s market. We took it a step further and added an EQ to the monitor path that can also be swapped with the main channel EQ.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Dual Input to the Channels \u2013 line and monitor
\n\u2022 Four band, sweepable channel EQ, is switchable with monitor Tilt EQ.
\n\u2022 Dual Inserts to each Channel at the preamp, or the main channel EQ.
\n\u2022 8 Auxes: 6 mono and 2 Stereo
\n\u2022 27dB of headroom<\/p>\n
Microphone Preamp:<\/p>\n
Incorporating a Discrete Class A preamp to the 88C is a departure from previous Trident console preamps in the 80 Series. This give\u2019s the 88C\u2019s a higher quality stock preamp from the start and also incorporates the option to add a Lundahl input transformer to any channel desired.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Discrete Class A
\n\u2022 65dB gain
\n\u2022 Balanced inputs, with optional Lundahl transformers
\n\u2022 Full bypass insert
\n\u2022 Input Reverse Switch
\n\u2022 Mic\/Line Switch
\n\u2022 Phantom Power Switch<\/p>\n
Console EQ:<\/p>\n
Expanding the great success of 80 Series recording consoles is only logical. Taking the highly regarded 80B EQ and improving on it with the 80C EQ was a great step forward for its time. The 80C EQ took all of the great sound of the 80B and gave it even more control. Keeping the 80C EQ as the brawn of the 88C\u2019s was a decision that required no second thought.
\nAdding more EQ to the 88C was the next step forward for a more versatile analog recording console\u2019s progression. Having EQ to the vast majority of the inputs to the 88 Custom console means more analog controls at your fingers.<\/p>\n
\u2022 High and low shelving
\n\u2022 Low\/high mid peaking
\n\u2022 4 Sweepable bands boost\/cut to +\/-15dB.
\n\u2022 50Hz high pass filter

\n\u2022 Monitor in: Tilt EQ
\n\u2022 Group FX Returns: 12kHz and 80hz shelving
\n\u2022 Group Monitor Returns: 12kHz and 80hz shelving<\/p>\n
Master Section:<\/p>\n
Keeping control of your workflow with ease and speed is the core function of an analog recording console. Your time spent setting up a mix and the ability to have tactile control with immediate effect over your work is essential and time saving.<\/p>\n
The 88C\u2019s are designed to give you maximum control and routing options all onboard at your fingertips. Making your creative process more effective and saving you time in the process.<\/p>\n
