The 12-channel Air-4 and 8-channel Air-1 cover all the broadcast basics and then some for tight spaces and tight budgets. Machine control, cue, and talkback features combine with USB, professional monitoring and rugged construction for remotes, small on-air studios, web streaming, production, or any situation where a compact, low-cost, highly capable radio console is needed.
Air-1 and Air-4 consoles are part of the Audioarts Engineering studio line, Wheatstone’s value line that includes headphone amps, talent stations, consoles, and control surfaces.
The Air-1 covers all the basics in a small frame: two mic inputs, six stereo line inputs, two program busses, and a flexible metering and monitoring section that is usually found only in larger boards, plus cue output, muting, and a built-in headphone amp. Air-1 is surprisingly inexpensive, so you don’t have to give up features or scrimp on the quality you need. Sometimes a powerful, compact broadcast console is exactly what you need.
The Air-4 covers all the basics and a little more. It gives you 12 input faders (w/A-B source select), a 13th fader for call-ins, external machine control, two program busses, built-in cue speaker and CR, headphone and studio monitoring control, plus four microphone preamps built in for a host microphone and three guest microphones without the use of any external mic preamps. Add patchable USB connectivity for PC news, production work stations or streaming audio, and the Audioarts Air-4 is perfect for local radio stations and internet broadcasters.

Wheatstone’s HPS-516 power supply is engineered and built to maximum peak-tolerant specifications right here in our factory to protect your Audioarts consoles and Wheatstone talent stations, ensuring the reliable operation of your most mission-critical studio components for an extended period. Studios are regularly exposed to surges and voltage spikes that can take a toll on equipment. Off-the-shelf power supplies won’t suffice when a 2,000-volt spike comes down the line, yet these commercial supplies are frequently used in many broadcast consoles, leading to a shortened lifespan and reduced reliability over time.
The HPS-516 power supply is designed to safeguard critical components and regulate power consistently and smoothly throughout the life of your Audioarts IP-12, DMX, Air 1, and Air 4 consoles, as well as Wheatstone TS-4 and TS-22 talent stations.
Our power supplies are engineered by Wheatstone and manufactured in our factory alongside our consoles and talent stations, all developed specifically to meet the demands and rigors of broadcasting day after day, year after year.
The HPS-516 is available in a single or double rackmount option.
If you have a Wheatstone, Audioarts, or VoxPro product, you’re an important member of the Wheatstone family and we want to hear from you, whether you have questions or need technical support, we are here for you.
