Summit Concept Art Part 3

Just thought I'd upload another concept art piece for the Phonic Summit. At this point it was called "Intuitive 32" - at least according to the design. This design is a lot more compact than what we ended up with, but didn't work on an engineering level and was a bit too crammed for the most part.

There are a few functions here Phonic employees wish they could have retained for the final version, but the way they ended up developing the unit didn't leave much room for any of the bells and whistles.  We'll see for the next version though.

Summit Concept Art Part 2

Here's another cool exclusive.  Everybody bask in its awesomness.

At this point we were calling Summit the iD-something-something.  There was going to be a number after the two letters, which hadn't yet been decided on.  We had decided to change up the inputs and outputs a bit at this point.  This was a while before we eventually settled on 16 mic/line, with the ability to pair them up for stereo inputs.

Again, we tried to pack too much into too small a design, and the end result was a bit 'wishy-washy' and not very intuitive.   If you look at the back panel, though, you can see the final design start to take shape.
