Soundcraft SI EXPRESSION 1 Audio Digital Mixer

Soundcraft's Si Expression 1 16-channel digital mixer uses cutting-edge DSP, component technology, and manufacturing techniques to give incredible mixing capabilities in a small, incredibly economical rackmount device. The Si Expression 1 features 16 reprogrammable mic preamps, four line inputs, four internal stereo FX returns, and AES in. You can use a 64 × 64 expansion slot to add up to 66 input processing channels. A highpass filter, input delay, gate, compressor, and 4-band EQ are all included in each. The topping on the cake is robust automation and connection. With Soundcraft's Si Expression 1 digital mixer, you can take your mixing to the next level.

If you think the input side of the Soundcraft Si Expression 1 is amazing, keep in mind that all Si Expression boards provide flexible busing, output processing, and communication. The 14 aux/group mixes on the Soundcraft Si Expression 1 can be configured as 14 mono mixes, eight mono + six stereo mixes, or anything in between. The four matrix mixes can be mono or stereo, depending on the situation. In addition to the left, right, and centre buses, there are four extra mix buses dedicated to the internal Lexicon FX processors. On the Soundcraft Si Expression, each bus mix has always-on compression, 4-band EQ, BSS graphic EQ, and delay. Comprehensive output connectivity includes 16 balanced line outs, a headphone out, AES out, and the 64 x 64 option slot.

Four stereo Lexicon FX processors based on the famous MX400 are included in the Soundcraft Si Expression consoles. You may edit to your heart's content with completely configurable parameters and dedicated tap-tempo buttons. These FX are hardware-based, so even if you use a lot of them, they won't slow down your other processing. With the Soundcraft Si Expression, you'll always have access to all of your dynamics, EQ, filters, delays, and GEQs, no questions asked.

Soundcraft's Si Expression mixers feature a 1 Control = 1 Function interface, with each control dedicated to a single function. No confusing control layering or endless menu purgatory navigation. This approach allows the Si Expression controls to be labelled on the surface just as they would be on an analog desk. Ah, productivity — how refreshing!

Si Expression boards, like any other Soundcraft digital mixer, offer a wealth of features and legendary audio quality, thanks to the cutting-edge EMMA DSP processor, which is the same DSP platform that has propelled previous Soundcraft Si series consoles to stardom. Si Expression mixers offer incredible processing power, unbeatable durability, astonishing versatility, incredible ease of use, and a surprisingly low price tag. Soundcraft delivers exactly what you'd expect.
