AG08 Controller

AG08 Controller Channels 1 and 2 have setting presets tailored to different purposes. Select a preset to instantly change COMP/EQ, VOICE CHANGER/AMP SIM, and FX to the recommended settings for each application.

Note: Presets cannot be overwritten, but settings are recorded on the AG08 mixer. In response to high demand, we added a SPEECH 7B/7dB preset that is optimized for the popular SHURE SM7B/SM7dB microphone.

Compressors decrease loud sounds and increase quiet sounds. Through using these functions, the difference between loud and quiet sounds is reduced, the overall level of sound is more balanced, and the audio becomes easier to hear. The COMP of the AG08 now has [Auto Makeup] in gain control section, making it easy to achieve ideal gain control.

Equalizers are effects that adjust tone by boosting and attenuating specific frequencies. And HPFs serve to cut unneeded low sounds and are used in such applications as cutting.

Voice Changer is a very powerful effect that changes your voice into various voices, including those of different genders and robot voices. The combination of four different effects "Dual Pitch" "Radio Voice" "Tremolo" and "Pitch Fix" allows you to create a wide variety of voices.

Version 1.5 has been improved to make voice change processing smoother, including for low-volume sounds like whispering and breathing.

AG Guitar Amp Simulator is a high-gain tube amp that is rich in overtones. It is ideally suited to playing lead guitar lines that will fit in well in an ensemble, but it can also be set up for crisp accompaniment tones as well.

Reverberation is an effect that brings out the depth and width of sound by adding signals that mimic the feel of a performance space with sizes ranging from a large hall to small room.

Delay is an effect that creates an echo-like sound, whereby the original audio is heard followed by the delayed audio.

Singing performers are often reinforced with this effect.

The combination of the two can bring about more realistic spatial expanses and illusory effects.

In Version 1.5 and higher, the FX SEND level for FX on Channels 1 and 2 can be set separately for each FX TYPE (REVERB/DELAY/DLY→REV). This allows you to optimally configure settings for each type.

Ducker function can be used to automatically attenuate Channels 3/4, 5/6, and 7/8 playback sound relative to audio input from Channels 1 and 2, so you can easily set up a streaming system where Channels 1 and 2 signals are always heard clearly.

In previous versions, the attack parameter of the ducker could not be changed. In version 1.5 it is an adjustable parameter. You can adjust it as you like to make it sound more natural when the ducker initiates automatic volume control.

Maximizer is a simple yet powerful mastering function that can add a level boost to your mix for extra polish and professionalism, as well as attenuating peaking signals to give your listeners and viewers a more comfortable and pleasant audio experience.

The AG08's Maximizer is in the form of a 3-band compressor, which allows for powerful correction of the balance of each band while equalizing the overall volume.

A delay correction function has been added to the streaming output. You can change the settings in the OUTPUT menu on the “Settings” screen. If there is latency with a video signal, you can use this function to lip-sync the audio and the video by intentionally adding latency to the audio.

The six sound pads on AG08 are used for playing jingles or sound effects to match the situation, which will add color to your streaming. You can assign and play back audio files assigned to the six buttons of the sound pad.

In the AG08 Controller app, you can set the sound assignment, the volume and playback method for each pad.
