Audient HORIZON 8P - Thunderbolt™ 3 Audio Interface
Welcome to the New Standard
The Horizon 8P is a 24-in / 32-out Thunderbolt™ 3 audio interface built around eight Audient console mic preamps with ORBIT Control variable impedance. Paired with 32-bit conversion at 133dB dynamic range and 0.99ms round-trip latency, the 8P puts a complete, console-grade tracking front end in a single rack unit — designed for the producer or studio capturing performances with real analogue character and headroom.
