The new Soundcraft EPM series combines quality, a reasonable price & an easy-to-use user interface. Components with low tolerances enable accurate settings, which are equally important especially for pre-amplifier & equaliser. The EPM-series offers 3 models with 6, 8 or 12 mono-channels & 2 stereo channels each. For the first time in this price class, use is made from the GB30 pre-amp design which is also in use in GB series mixers. These pre-amps are particularly secure against clipping. They have a frequency response of 55d B & provide a +22 d B headroom. A phantom voltage supplies condenser mics of all types with true +48 V. A special feature here is the peak LED. This monitors the signal at different points & gets brighter & brighter the closer the signal gets to the clip limit. The mixer has a built-in switched PSU & the mains cable socket has been fitted in such a way so as not to require any additional rack space. The Soundcraft EPM series is suited for live broadcasts, fixed installations & recording applications.
