| The 8-Channel Soundcraft MFX mixer uses the same
AudioDNA processor featured in many of the Digitech and Lexicon
outboard equipment including the highly respected Lexicon MX500
processor.
The MFX Series combines all the features of the
popular Soundcraft MPM mixer with a built-in 24-bit, digital, Lexicon
effects processor, expanding the Soundcraft low-cost, multi-purpose
compact range.
With over 35 years of experience, the Lexicon
name is among top creators of reverb and processing equipment in the
business, ensuring the finest quality effects not usually found in a
console at this price level.
The effects section fits neatly
into the mixers compact framework, with 2 stereo channels and an
effects-send on each channel. There are 32 different effects to choose
from with a tap tempo function, 3 effects parameter controls and a user
effects setting store facility. An effects channel level clip LED and
Mute function give the user even more flexibility.
The emphasis
with the Soundcraft MFX is very firmly on quality build and audio
performance, with an easy-to-understand control surface in line with
the Soundcraft professional range. The Soundcraft MFX uses the
highly-transparent GB30 Mic amp (designed by Graham Blyth for the
company's 30th anniversary, and also used on the larger LX7ii and GB
Series consoles). The Soundcraft MFX also offers all the features of
the Soundcraft MPM, most notably two configurable aux sends, two
groups, XLR and 1/4" metal jack connector sockets, RCA phono stereo
playback inputs and record outputs, 3-band EQ with a swept mid on the
mono inputs, 3-band EQ on the 2 stereo inputs, TRS insert sockets,
inserts on all mono inputs, ten-segment LED output metering, and a
headphone output.
The Soundcraft MFX will find itself in many
applications including live music, recording, houses of worship and
multi-speaker installations and is easily rack mountable.
