Product description
As you would expect from any Soundcraft digital mixer the facilities are extensive and include legendary audio quality courtesy of the latest generation EMMA DSP processor, the same DSP platform that has helped propel previous Soundcraft Si series consoles to fame. All this power united with reliability, flexibility and usability puts the Si Expression in a class of its own.
Product features
- Massive mix capacity - 66 inputs to mix in a small format live sound digital mixer
1 ViSi Connect option card slot for 64x64 expansion of digital I/O including the MultiDigital Card (Firewire/USB/ADAT), BSS Digital Audio Bus (BLU Link), Dante, CAT5 or optical MADI, AVIOM, CobraNet and others. - Assignable fader layers
Customize each of the four fader layer pages to meet your needs or add/insert faders to accommodate that additional mic that was not in the patch list! - 1 Control = 1 Function
With each control dedicated to a given function there is never any 'layering' of controls or navigating through screens; this allows the Si Performer controls to be labeled on the surface just as they would have been on an analogue mixer. - Totem
The One Touch Easy Mix; press a single key to mix to an AUX, FX or Matrix bus, the surface and monitoring instantly reconfigure to allow instant mixing to your chosen bus on the faders. - Soundcraft FaderGlow
Illuminates the fader slots according to function with clearly defined colors for FX, Stereo, Linked Mono, GEQ, POST Fade Aux, PRE Fade Aux; you'll never be lost again! - BSS GEQ
With a BSS GEQ on every bus there is never any need to assign from a pool of resources and you will never 'run out' of processing. - Security lockout
Lock the whole console or just selected elements, manage the security with the users and profile settings. - Personal monitoring interface
When used with the Si BLU link option card, the Si Performer is a perfect partner to the dbx PMC16 Personal Monitoring System, using simple Cat5 cabling for easy setup. - D.O.G.S. (Direct Out Gain Stabilizer)
Prevents manual change of a mic gain control affecting direct out levels, perfect when 2 consoles share a stagebox or when recording the channel direct outputs. - Global mode controls
A row of rotary controls above each fader assignable at the touch of a button to be GAIN, PAN or HPF for all of the inputs allowing instant access to the core functions. - Copy & paste
Copy whole channels, busses, mixes, Lexicon effects, a single part such as the EQ or multiple parts like the channel gate and compressor. - Instant access keys
Dedicated keys on the front panel for STORE, RECALL, NEXT, MUTE 1-4, TAP TEMPO and more negate the need to dive into screen & context menus. - Function focus
Whenever a control is moved or SELect key pressed the screen displays information about the channel identifying the absolute value of the controls and the channel name, number etc. - Everything everywhere
All channels and busses have a full complement of processing, nothing to assign or configure.
