The Audient ASP800 adds eight microphone preamps and ADAT conversion to a compatible recording system. It is useful for expanding an interface when a session needs more microphones, such as a drum recording or full-band setup.

The first two RETRO channels add HMX harmonic saturation and IRON transformer drive, giving you a choice between straightforward capture and added analogue colour. Two JFET instrument inputs and balanced analogue outputs extend its use beyond microphone recording.
