The Stage 16 remote I/O box was originally designed as the Stage I/O for the Venue | S3L-X. It was also the first AVB networked Stage Box for Avid and has earned a solid reputation for its sound quality and versatility over the years. Stage 16 was designed and built for the road as proven by the numerous high profile world tours it has been part of, but it is the rack's versatility that I want to spotlight for this article.

The Stage 16 remote I/O has 16 XLR analog Mic/Line inputs, as well as 8 XLR analog Line outputs and 4 channels of AES digital outputs. It takes up 4U in a standard 19 inch rack configuration, but if you turn the rack ears upright, you can use it as a freestanding dropbox. The ruggedized rubber enclosure is designed for this implementation, and at 7.1 kg / 15.8 lbs and with it's shallow depth (20 cm / 8.1 inches), it is perfect for spreading out on soundstages or performance spaces that requires easily accessible I/O.
