Simple Compact Digital Mixer!
Yeah, it sounds like a contradiction of terms. You don't normally see "simple," "compact," and "digital mixer" in a single sentence. So let's up the ante - how about "fully loaded" for good measure? That's right, the Soundcraft Si Compact 24 digital mixing console isn't just compact and easy to use, it's also got all the juice you need to run every effect and processor on it as once... that's a TON of power! We're talking about a gate, a compressor, an 4-band parametric EQ, and delay on each channel, plus four killer Lexicon effects, and full graphic EQs on every output... how cool is that!?But none of that would matter if the Si Compact 24 digital mixing console was a pain to run. And that's what really makes this mixer rock. You see, all it takes is the press of the Select button to access any channel's I/O, dynamics, and EQ controls. On top of that, the Si Compact 24's FaderGlow function instantly kicks in when you access any of the processors. Need to tweak a channel's pre-fade aux send? Bam! The fader turns amber and jumps into place. Time to dial in the main graphic EQ? Hit the GEQ button and 14 faders turn red and snap to attention in a perfect graphic display. See? It's that simple.
What's more, setting up the Si Compact 24 is a breeze, thanks to the super-intuitive color touchscreen at the center of it all. There's also room to expand the Si Compact 24, by tossing in a Soundcraft Si series option card - so you can add Aviom output or MADI I/O or anything else you need to integrate one of these sweet boards into your rig. Simplify your life - get yourself a Soundcraft Si Compact 24 digital mixer!
