SoundCraft MFX 8/2i

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.
