SOUNDCRAFT M8 MIXING DESK

In a world full of cheap compact mixers, Soundcraft has achieved
something exceptional with the Spirit M Series. Equally suited to
recording and live sound applications, the Spirit M Series delivers
a great-sounding, reliable performance, session after session, mix
after mix. A mixer for life.
Even before you plug in a Soundcraft Spirit M Series mixer you know
it?s something very special. The brushed steel side panels aren?t just
beautiful, they can withstand a weight of 60kg (132 lbs) and are designed
to leave the mixer with no sharp edges. Removing these panels is simple,
revealing a robust, integral rack mounting system equipping the M Series
instantly for a life on the road.

The Spirit M Series is also exceptionally easy to use. The control surface
will be immediately familiar to anyone who has used a mixer before and will
quickly become second nature even to a novice. All inputs, EQ, auxes, panning
and level controls are presented clearly, saving you time when creating your mixes
and providing you with more time to spend on achieving the best sound. High quality
100mm faders combine with signal and peak LEDs on every channel and high resolution
output metering places the operator in total control. You?ll find no unsightly screw heads
anywhere on the M Series? front panel to get in the way of your mixing, while a durable,
multi-coat paint finish, ensures that a Spirit M Series console always looks as good as it sounds.

From raw component level through to cosmetic finishing, the Spirit M Series
has been built to last. Just pick one up and you?ll know what we mean. Even
 the knobs are special, custom designed to our own exacting requirements.
We?ve ensured there is plenty of spacing between the controls, enabling you
to comfortably achieve total control of your mix. Even the headphone jack is
located at the bottom right hand corner of the mixer so a trailing cable will never
get in your way. Just another example of the attention to detail which makes the
Soundcraft Spirit M Series the standard against which other compact mixing consoles must now be judged.

The Soundcraft Spirit M Series is available in 4, 8 or 12 mono input channel frame
sizes. All three mixers include four stereo inputs and four stereo returns, with all
other features and specifications identical.

Soundcraft FX16ii - rebirth of a classic

The Soundcraft FX16ii mixer uses the same AudioDNA processor featured in many of the Digitech and Lexicon outboard equipment including the highly respected Lexicon MX500 processor. With over 35 years experience, the Lexicon name is synonymous with the best reverb and processing in the business, ensuring the finest quality effects not usually found in a console at this price level.

The Soundcraft FX16ii offers a combination of powerful live and recording features; each channel has a Direct Output which is individually switch-able pre or post fader to enable use with 16-track recording systems. The Lexicon effects work just as well in the live as well as the recording environment with a tap tempo function, 3 parameter controls, user effects settings store ability, effects clip LED and 32 powerful and editable effects to choose from.

The use of the latest PCB surface mount technology means that the Soundcraft FX16ii fits all of these features into a rugged, compact frame which can be optionally rack-mounted into a 10U space via Soundcraft FX16ii's rotating connector pod which allows cables to be connected conveniently behind the rack and save rack space.

Soundcraft FX16ii main features include:

• 26 inputs
• 16 mono microphone channels
• 4 stereo returns
• 4-bus architecture, with sub-group routable to mix
• Built-in 24 bit Lexicon digital effects processor

The LX7 combines the essential Soundcraft live mixer qualities
with basic recording-oriented features, in a compact frame that's
light enough for one person to carry yet easy to configure and use.
This makes it especially suitable for multi-purpose use in venues
such as small halls and community centres, while its direct channel
outputs make the LX7 an ideal choice for bands who need a live desk
that can double up in the studio.

Housed in a choice of 16, 24 or 32 channel frame, LX7 provides 24,
32 or 40 inputs - with no less than 7 separate bus outputs including
mix, 4 groups and a dedicated mono bus for centre speaker clusters,
side or rear fills. The output count rises to 29 with the inclusion of direct
outs on the first 16 mono inputs and six auxiliary busses.

LX7's balanced mic inputs all use patented Ultramic preamps,
providing 60dB of gain range and 22dBu of headroom. Each input
also includes 4 band EQ with two swept mid frequency controls.
In addition, EQ In/Out switch and steep 18dB/Octave High Pass Filter,
allow effective audio control in difficult venues whilst the six auxiliary sends
are pre-post switchable in pairs from each channel, providing a maximum of
4 pre-fader and six post-fader. This makes LX7 equally applicable
for foldback - heavy performance or in situations where more effects are required.

LX7's groups section houses two further stereo inputs - with EQ, auxiliaries
for keyboards or stereo recording devices - as well as two FX returns. All four
groups are routable to mix and include 12 segment bargraph metering for
accurate monitoring and inserts. Six auxiliary masters on rotary controls also
included AFL soloing.

In the master section there is talkback provision to all pre-fade auxiliaries and
the mix. Global phantom power and a two track return for pre-show music are
also present. A "two-track" to mix switch allows the engineer to play CD's over
the main PA whilst back-stage set-up is going on, with one press of a button.
The mix is also routable to the separate mono bus if mono PAs are required.

LX7 is built in a rugged wedge-shaped steel chassis with an internal power supply,
professional all-metal jackfield and connectors on the rear of the console. All inputs and outputs are balanced.

Expand Your MCU with More Faders !

The Mackie Control Extender Pro is a control surface extender that expands your Mackie Control Universal Pro unit with the addition of eight motorized, touch-sensitive Penny + Giles faders, plus V-Pot rotary encoders and push-buttons on every channel strip. The Mackie Control Extender Pro module attaches seamlessly to the Control Universal Pro unit, integrating with all the main control surface's functions and commands without the need for any external hardware. You can expand your MCU's ability to control your DAW even further with the addition of the Mackie Control Extender Pro.

The Mackie Control Extender Pro features the same 100mm touch-sensitive optical Penny + Giles motorized faders as the MCU Pro control surface. These smooth faders give you the tactile, responsive feel of an analog console while accurately commanding your state-of-the-art DAW software.

Each of the Mackie Control Extender Pro's eight channels features a multi-function V-Pot for fast and accurate control of panning, effects levels, and more. Also included on each channel strip are mute, solo, pan, send level, and record arm functions, as well as a full meter display.

The Mackie Control Extender Pro is literally the "right hand man" of the Mackie Control Universal Pro control surface. Once connected, it's seamlessly integrated into the system, so all parameters, automation, and other control commands are communicated in concert with the rest of the system - no external hardware required!
