The Series 80 5.1 is the classic Trident circuit design, in a fully surround-capable console package. The mic pre and EQ are identical to the original Trident Series 80, faithfully reproduced to give that classic warm, punchy sound. The Series 80 5.1 is available in many input configurations, with all 'aluminium' knobs and the original anodised black panel finish. A custom steel stand, PSU and quality wood finish cladding are included. An optional matched producer's sidecar and custom palladium-contact patchbay are available.

Full 5.1 surround-sound mixing, PPM channel meters, VU master output, 8 Aux sends, 8 stereo returns with flexible routing, EQ and pan/balance. Global mode select (re-mix), Fader flip, EQ flip and inline monitoring capabilities. The Series 80 5.1 is available with full motorized fader automation.

The mic-pre and EQ provide the classic Trident sound: Four band EQ with two swept mids, and switchable hi and low shelves, plus low cut and EQ bypass. The console also has a full finalising module in the centre section, comprised of the John Oram Hi-Def EQ and dual circuit compression unit, to enable you to deliver a finished '2 mix' analogue master, right off the stereo buss.

The Series 8T is a product that Oram has been asked to build for quite some time now.

It features a great mic pre, identical to the one used in the Trident S-20, S-40, 4T Celebration Strip and the Dream Series consoles, offering the same super-low noise and wide bandwidth, with that hint of Oram magic only found in classic Trident designs.

The EQ is a replica of the original Series 80B design, again created by John Oram in the 1970's.

The Series 8T offers 8 aux sends, a monitor buss, mono monitoring selector, VU meters, a talkback mic and controller, remote power supply for ultimate low noise performance, an optional meterbridge hiding the termination panel, and lots more.

The Oram Dream Series of Consoles have been designed to satisfy the RME/Magix (or similar) digital audio user with the need for warmth at mixdown. The phenomenal demand for an analogue console to complement digital workstations at the right price prompted the Oram Audio design team to create this latest Series of boards. "We've taken the best of my circuit designs and combined them in this new Series" says John Oram. "Our little S100 mixer has sold so very well over the last two years that we've taken that basic channel strip with original Trident EQ and enhanced it with a new mic pre, line amp, additional balancing on inputs and outputs and perfected the crosstalk and shutdown."
