Allen & Heath Avantis: Mixing Made for Worship

Worship audio engineers and church tech directors need a console that keeps up with a full band, a livestream, and a room full of expectations every single week. The Allen & Heath Avantis 64-channel digital mixer runs on the same 96kHz XCVI engine as Allen & Heath's flagship dLive system, giving you 42 configurable buses, dual Full HD touchscreens, and the Continuity UI workflow that puts EQ, compressor, and FX controls right where your hands already are. Add the dPack upgrade and you get dLive level processing, including Dyn8 dynamic EQ and DEEP compressors, without leaving the worship budget behind. SoundPro's Allen & Heath specialists are ready to help you build the right Avantis system for your team.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What's the difference between the Avantis and Avantis Solo?

    Both mixers share the same 64 input, 42 bus, 96kHz mix engine, so the sound quality and processing power are identical. The difference is physical control and I/O: the Avantis gives you the full surface with dual touchscreens and onboard faders, while the Solo trims down the hardware footprint for a more compact setup.

  • How does the Avantis handle I/O expansion for a house of worship install?

    The Avantis ships with 12 XLR analog inputs and outputs plus 1 stereo AES input and 2 AES outputs, and it supports up to two 128x128 96kHz I/O option cards along with SLink connectivity to the full range of Allen & Heath expanders, including Dante expanders like the DT168 and DT164-W for integrators who need to scale a system.

  • Do I need the dPack upgrade on the Avantis, or is the base mixer enough for live sound?

    Right out of the box, the Avantis already covers most live sound needs with its 42 configurable buses and 12 RackExtra FX slots. The dPack upgrade is worth it if you want dLive level processing specifically, up to 16 instances of Dyn8 dynamic EQ, DEEP compressors, and the Dual Stage Valve Preamp, which is more relevant for engineers who want that flagship-level tone shaping in a worship mix.

  • Would the Avantis work for a school or church run educational AV program?

    The touch sensitive faders and Continuity UI are designed to surface exactly what a student or volunteer operator needs at a given moment, which shortens the learning curve compared to a traditional analog board. That makes it a reasonable fit for an educational or training focused audio program, not just a full time professional engineer.

  • Is the Avantis reliable enough for a worship team running the same service every week?

    Yes. It's built on Allen & Heath's proven 96kHz XCVI engine with under 0.7ms of latency, and Continuity UI keeps EQ, compressor, and FX controls consistently accessible so your worship team's mix stays predictable Sunday after Sunday, whether the same engineer or a different volunteer is behind the board.

  • What's actually different between the Avantis engine and the dLive engine?

    Both run on Allen & Heath's 96kHz XCVI FPGA processing platform, but the Avantis packages it into a 64 channel, 42 bus, all-in-one console, while dLive is a modular MixRack and surface system with more scalable I/O. The dPack option is what lets Avantis borrow dLive's dedicated processing, including Dyn8, DEEP compressors, and RackExtra FX, so the two platforms share real DNA even though the hardware form factors differ.
