Allen & Heath IP8 Remote Control Surface – Multi-Function Programmable Control Interface (AH-IP-8)

Allen & Heath IP8 Remote Control Surface (AH-IP-8)

Multi-Function Programmable Network Control Interface for Advanced Audio Systems

The Allen & Heath IP8 (AH-IP-8) is a powerful programmable remote control surface designed for use with dLive, Avantis, and AHM systems. It provides a more advanced level of system interaction compared to simpler wall controllers, offering multiple faders, rotary controls, and function keys for detailed audio system management.

Built for professional installed audio, broadcast, and live production environments, the IP8 gives operators direct hands-on control of key system parameters without needing access to the main mixing console.

Key Features

• Eight fully assignable motorized-style control functions (via faders/encoders depending on system setup)
• Programmable soft keys for scene, zone, or system control
• High-resolution display for system feedback and parameter tracking
• Network-based control via Ethernet (TCP/IP)
• Powered via PoE (Power over Ethernet) for simple installation
• Compatible with dLive, Avantis, and AHM systems
• Flexible assignment of functions such as:
  • Channel or zone level control
  • Scene recall and system macros
  • Source selection and routing control
• Supports multiple IP controllers in one system design
• Can be used in wall-mounted or desktop configurations (depending on install kit)
• Built for continuous use in commercial and professional AV environments

Product Overview

The IP8 is designed for situations where users need more control than basic wall panels provide, but still require a compact and dedicated interface rather than a full mixing surface. It allows complex system operations to be simplified into physical controls that can be customized for each installation.
