Midas Verona 640IP (Install) 64 mono + 8 multifunction inputs (2 x internal, 1 x external PSU) £17,568.08
Description
Verona is, quite simply, the desk the industry has been asking Midas for.
It takes the concept of the ultra-compact Venice, Midas’ best selling console of all time, and elevates it to the next level. Verona delivers more inputs, more features, along with legendary Midas quality in a package that revolutionises the 8 buss market. Visually, the console looks stunning; despite it’s physically modest proportions, it feels like a full-sized Midas to work on; and of course, most importantly of all, it sounds as good as it looks.
So what exactly is Verona?
Firstly, it’s a truly professional desk aimed squarely at the professional market. Mechanically and electronically Verona is much more than just another 8-bus console. If you are primarily motivated by audio quality, rigid mechanical construction, long-term reliability and high residual values, then it is THE 8-buss console.
The Verona series consists of 6 models ranging from 24 up to a massive 64 inputs, and incorporates all the features and components that make it look, sound and feel like a true Midas. It has been designed from the ground up by the same team responsible for the XL4 and the Heritage Series consoles, including the industry-standard Heritage 3000.
Anyone who has ever bought a Venice and loved it is going to be captivated by the Verona – you get more inputs, more features and that all-important Midas quality. Available as an install or touring package the Verona will handle anything from houses of worship to broadcast / recording, theatre to corporate applications, and of course concert sound.

Features
- Compact Console - with Big Console Attitude: Verona delivers more inputs, more features, along with legendary Midas quality in a package that revolutionises the 8 buss market. Visually, the console looks stunning; despite it’s physically modest proportions, it feels like a full-sized Midas to work on; and of course, most importantly of all, it sounds as good as it looks.
- Superior Midas Sound: Verona uses a brand new premium performance mic amp design, with very high CMR performance providing simple, noise free interconnections. High performance audio summing busses are used throughout and all main outputs are fully balanced with high current capability for noise free interconnections.
- Equaliser: Highly accurate and musical swept 4-band EQ on every mono channel. The stereo channel is the same variety with swept mids. There is a switched high pass filter on every channel plus swept frequency on mono inputs.
- Multi Function Modules: Verona includes 8 multi function inputs as standard. These inputs can be mono mic, stereo line or both. The stereo line jacks are for use with either balanced or unbalanced line level signals and are protected from 48V phantom. The mono mic amp input incorporates a phase switch and a front panel switched insert.
- 8 Aux Outputs: 2 Aux busses with individual Pre/Post Fader switches and 6 Aux busses with global master Pre/Post fader assign.
- 8 Audio Sub Groups: Assigned from individual routing buttons (pre/post pan) from the input channel.
- Spacial Image System (SIS™): Spatial Image System utilises a central cluster with a left-right system to form three discrete channels. Available from channels and groups.
- 4 mute groups: Easy to programme, easy to re-call mutes created from inputs. The soft mute circuit has silent operation and LED indication.
- Channel Inserts: Front panel switchable insert points on each mic input.
- 12 x 4 Matrix: Fed from the Groups (or Auxes dependant on c/o switch), LR & C and external input on rotary controls. The external input can be individually routed directly to LR & C if required.
- Unique Module Construction: Semi modular construction in 8 channel blocks. Modules blocks feature a structural sub chassis carrying 2 PCBs and a separate (non structural) dress facia.
- Faders: 100mm monorail self cleaning faders
- PSU’s: The current sharing, voltage sensing, auto-switching PSU’s are internally mounted. The “no hum” design saves the need for external racking and cabling. Verona 240 and 320 come with one internal PSU whilst Verona 400, 480, 560 and 640 come with two internal PSU’s. Each frame includes an external connection port for an optional external PSU.
- Verona Practicality: The Verona can be shipped as a touring package which includes flightcase, Littlites and dustcover. For those of you who will be using the Verona in a fixed installation it can be shipped as an install package, without the expense of a flight case.
- Verona Versatility: Due to Verona’s intelligent design the desk can be loaded with as many multifunction modules as you require. Each module has eight multi function inputs.
- Verona Capability: Every Verona console has backup PSU capability. Verona 400, 480, 560 and 640 models have redundancy as standard. Internal PSU’s are auto-voltage sensing, current-sharing and auto-changeover.
- All Verona consoles have a connector for an optional external PSU.
- Verona Spatial Image System™: The benefits of S.I.S.™ can only be realised with a console that is built for the task.Conventional consoles can be used for three channel mixing, but the methods for doing so are complicated and unorthodox, forcing the engineer to work in unaccustomed ways, limiting creative flexibility, making use by visiting operators impractical.
- When using Midas S.I.S.™ capable mixing consoles the pan controls may be switched for either conventional or S.I.S.™ operation on each input channel. In S.I.S.™ mode the centre position of the control routes the input to a separate channel output, in this case it pans from left to centre or right to centre. Back up vocalists can be panned slightly into the centre cluster to improve intelligibility while keeping the featured vocal ‘front and centre’. Musical instruments can be placed in a conventional mix then easily switched to the centre for solos. In theatrical productions S.I.S.™ gives the ability to pan an actor’s voice across three channels following their on stage movements. In stereo only productions the centre output can be used to provide a mono to sub base feed activating a single ‘L + R to Centre’ switch.
- Warranty: Midas has confidence in their products resulting in an industry beating 3-year warranty.
