Soundcraft E947.300000 Vi1-32 Mixing Console

Soundcraft put the heart of their acclaimed digital Vi series into a small format console with analog I/O to create the affordable Vi1 stand-alone 32 channel digital mixing system. Retaining the user-friendly Vi interface and signature audio quality, the Soundcraft E947.300000 Vi1-32 Mixing Console is ideal for touring, broadcast, and installed sound applications.

The Vi1 is a 32 x 27 analog I/O console with additional monitor A and B outputs plus Six digital inputs and outputs on a combination of AES/EBU and SPDIF connectors. The control surface features sixteen motorized channel faders, eight assignable VCA output faders, and two master faders.

Assignment and configuration are conveniently controlled in the digital domain, allowing the Vi1 to deliver mixing prowess that belies its modest 3.3' frame. The spacious 22" Vistonics touch screen offers the option of familiar capacitive touch control over certain functions while two rows of 16 rotary encoders handle parameter control. 16 channels and their parameters can be viewed simultaneously and scrolled by banks up to a total of 46 mix channels. Snapshot, talkback, and monitor control are also available via the touch screen.

The Vi1 comes with four integrated Lexicon effects engines, graphic EQ on all output busses, and dynamics on all channels that are saveable and recallable. Plus, you don't need extra rack space! Of course, if you want to use your vintage mic pres, EQs, and dynamics processors, the Vi1 offers up to 24 inserts that can be conveniently assigned to any of the inputs or outputs.

Versatile, powerful, and affordable, the desk you want. Soundcraft's Vi1-32.

The unit comes complete with twin redundant power supplies, thermostatically-controlled fan cooling and full LED status monitoring. An 8ch GPIO interface is also provided.

The Compact Stagebox is ideal for existing owners of Vi Series consoles as a cost-effective method of expanding the input capability by expanding to up to 96 mic/line analogue inputs from remote stageboxes, or as a partner for the Vi1 and Si range of consoles providing cost-effective remote I/O capability in conjunction with the optional MADI interface cards available for those consoles.
