The Thunder | Core range of products cover a plethora of different pro audio application scenarios. While most of them could handle all of the below applications, each of them is particularly suited for specific applications.
But naturally, it all depends on your audio infrastructure and general setup so the below recommendations merely serve as inspiration for how you could integrate Thunder | Core products in your workflow.
LIVE SOUND
AX Center could also find its way into meaningful applications in Live Sound. For example, recording, virtual soundcheck, inserting external effects processors, routing and much more.
Since it offers a wealth of Dante and MADI connectivity within the same 1 RU box, it easily covers both of these commonly used live sound formats seamlessly and simultaneously if needed. Whatever the console, AX Center will adapt to fit.
MUSIC PRODUCTION
Adding all of the above together, the result is a compact studio miracle that ensures your precious audio is converted from analog to digital completely true to its natural expression, seamlessly routed and summed with utmost precision, and finally it passes through a world-class D/A stage before reaching your speakers and ultimately your ears.
It is our goal that you can trust what you hear from capturing the source to the final round of mastering. While this adds up to the perfect audio interface for production in Music Studios, AX Center can be configured and used for virtually any pro audio application you could ever think of.
IMMERSIVE AUDIO
With Dolby Atmos immersive sound quickly becoming one of the central audio formats of the future, AX Center is ready to take on immersive projects and productions.
And this is regardless of whether it’s for Dolby Atmos Music, streaming on e.g. Apple Music, Tidal and Amazon Music, or if it is object-based productions.

LOCATION RECORDING
For instance, some music producers and recording engineers multitrack at a remote location and then brings back the stems for mixing and mastering in the studio. So, also in the case of Location Recording, AX Center is the ideal companion in the field as well as back home in the studio. The I/O configuration in this scenario may be 18 analog channels with pristine DAD microphone preamps and A/D conversion.
MASTERING
Mastering is another obvious area for AX Center to excel. In this scenario, installing one Analogue In card and one Analogue Out card with 8 channels each would be ideal for inserting analog outboard units such as EQ’s and compressors.
Naturally, a super-clean signal chain is critically important in mastering, and using our A/D and D/A stages would ensure that you can trust every little detail you hear and every little tweak that you make.
