Announced at NAMM this year, the H2 Audio Olympic 1100 Analog Console is a professional-grade recording desk built for serious studio environments. Hand-assembled in Detroit, it channels the iconic sound of vintage Helios consoles while supporting the needs of modern workflows. Known for its warm, open tone and tight low end, the Olympic 1100 delivers a harmonically rich analog sound that suits tracking, mixing, and post-production applications.
The console is available in multiple configurations, with channel counts starting at 8 and scaling up through 16, 24, 32, 48, and custom sizes. Its modular, scalable design allows studios to tailor the console layout to their specific workflow or expand it over time. Built with high-quality, serviceable components, it includes custom step-up audio transformers and durable switches to ensure long-term reliability. The Olympic 1100 also incorporates updated bussing and routing options to accommodate hybrid studio setups and contemporary session demands.
Users can further expand the console with optional H760 FET compressors and other modular components to match more complex production needs. This makes it a versatile fit for both compact tracking rooms and full-scale mixing facilities. Designed with professional engineers and producers in mind, the Olympic 1100 emphasizes hands-on control and analog signal integrity without sacrificing modern flexibility.
The console is currently available for preorder through H2 Audio. Pricing depends on configuration and any additional modules selected, and lead times may vary due to the hand-built nature of each unit.
