Revamped Soundcraft LX7ii: Your Ultimate Live Mixing Console
The Soundcraft LX7 console, already a huge success, has been upgraded to the LX7ii, boasting improvements in both audio specs and cosmetics.
This stylish new console draws inspiration from the highly popular MH3 and MH4 touring sound consoles, featuring a new frame, module ID graphics, and end-cheeks. It's not only user-friendly but also a system that'll make professionals green with envy.
Electronically, the LX7ii comes with a new Soundcraft mic-preamp and EQ section, both designed by founder Graham Blyth. The GB30 Series, coinciding with the 30-year anniversary, offers a 4-band EQ with swept mid sections, inspired by the acclaimed EQ in the MH3 and MH4 consoles.
Key Features:
- • New GB30 Series mic preamp for top-notch audio quality
- • Stylish design inspired by popular touring consoles
- • Versatile for live performances, installations, and recording
'The new GB30 mic pre on the LX7ii combines the quality of our biggest touring desk's mic pre, while being cost-sensitive for the market. We're committed to providing the best audio at the best price,' says Blyth.
'The GB30 EQ, with roots in the new MH range, has a steeper slope on fixed LF and HF sections, cutting through mid-frequency 'mush' for a clearer sound. It's a unique, affordable design bringing high-end EQ to a mixing console for the first time.'
Other standard features include frame sizes up to 32 mono inputs, four stereo inputs/returns, four groups, main stereo output, and a dedicated mono output. There are direct outputs on the first 16 inputs for multitrack recording and six auxes for effects and foldback. It mixes to seven outputs.
The LX7ii continues the legacy of the original LX7, perfect for live performance PA, church and theatre installations, and any situation where a compact console needs many inputs and high output. It excels in both recording and live applications.
