Soundcraft SM 20 Console with Power Supply and Touring Case
With 20 configurable output busses, Soundcraft's SM20 is designed to handle the complexities of today's live gig. In-ear monitoring, conventional wedges, or any mixture of the two. As all live sound engineers know, in-ear monitoring is falling in cost and rising in quality. So much so that it's no longer the exclusive domain of major stadium acts. Nowadays, many more foldback mixes are required in stereo; in short, half a dozen mono aux sends is simply no longer sufficient, even in smaller clubs and theatres. That's why Soundcraft built the SM20; a compact, fully featured monitoring console that handles a smaller gig without blowing the budget. The SM20's flexible output structure is immediately configurable to the way you work. If you're mixing for wedges, you can set the SM20 to provide 20 mono monitor sends. Alternatively, if you're mixing for a stereo in-ear system, you can configure up to 7 stereo mixes along with 6 mono sends. Each pair of output channels is individually configurable. As with Soundcraft's monitor consoles of the past, the SM20 is also strong on innovation. Integral MIDI control of theBSS FPC-900 Varicurve™ remote enables all outboard EQ settings associated with an output to be displayed when that output is soloed. With individual outboard EQ parameters adjustable from the remote, there's rarely a need to leave the console's central mixing position. And as is the case with all Soundcraft consoles, sound quality can be taken for granted. The 4-band, sweepable EQ with 2 parametric mid- ranges is sweet and musical, while the advanced mic input stages feature Soundcraft's proprietary 'range' switches to ensure signal integrity. With 4 frame sizes ranging from 32 to 56 channels and an optional VU meterbridge, there's an SM20 to match every size of application. If you thought your show needed more outputs than a monitor console could offer you, think again. Think Soundcraft SM20.
