The Phoenix Audio Scion builds upon their famed Nicerizer analog summing mixers. The Scion has all the best foundational parts of the Nicerizer, but features the ability to provide three different mixes, utilizing three different character/tone options.
The Phoenix Audio Scion Summing Mixer is a 100% Class-A Discrete Analog Summing Mixer, loaded with tons of great features. With the Scion, Phoenix provides a transformerless input stage, that brings a full frequency spectrum, unrivaled clarity and punch. The output features multiple paths for three distinct mixes. One that is transformerless for superiour clarity, the other features Phoenix's custom wound DB694 transformers for a smooth and harmonically rich tone, and the third an parallel blending of the two tones together. This is coupled with their fully discrete DSOP-2 output amplifier. The DSOP-2 is the result of Phoenix’s head-designer David Rees’ forward-thinking solutions for upgrading vintage Neve consoles. Improve on Neve? Indeed, the DSOP-2 represents the pinnacle of Class-A output circuits, offering a smooth transition from ultra-clean to beautifully saturated tones. All outputs can be used simultaneously so in theory mix engineers will be able to record 3 distinctive mixes simultaneously to offer their clients great sonic flexible options.
