Emerging Sell DAD AX24 To Abbey Road

The UK distributors for Digital Audio Denmark’s high-end A-D and D-As, have sold four DAD AX24 converters to EMI's renowned Abbey Road Studios.
Emerging supplied the converters which will be employed for use in the Abbey Road Mobile. All four are equipped with plug-in MADI options, and two include DAD's new direct Pro Tools HD interface card.
Abbey Road Studios Engineer Jonathan Allen, who undertook test recordings with the AX24 before Abbey Road purchased the units, commented: "For the last few years, the Abbey Road Mobile Recording unit has been looking to create affordable recording and editing packages without compromising on quality. Key to this was our search for a unit which had world-class digital converters, great built-in mic amps and the ability to run MADI back to the control room. The DAD AX24 not only ticked these boxes but made one of the best arguments for working at higher sampling frequencies."
"We're delighted that Abbey Road has chosen to add DAD technology to their equipment list," commented eMerging co-founder Paul Mortimer. "Word about the high quality of these converters has been gradually spreading in the UK, and it means a lot to us that Abbey Road Studios have declared themselves to be fans."
The AX24s, with their MADI and Pro Tools cards, are due to be delivered to Abbey Road Studios in this month.
