Expandable and Versatile
Input to mix capacity is 46chs, but by adding a stagebox (compatible with the existing Vi racks), simultaneous channel count increases to 64. Channels are routable to 24 multifunction busses, plus LR and Mono Mix busses. Up to 8 of the busses can be configured as Matrix mixes, each with up to 16 sources.
Other features include 4 stereo Lexicon effects engines, BSS Audio graphic EQs on all output busses, and integral dynamics on all channels. The Vi1-32 is compatible with Vi2, 4 and 6 show files.
The user-friendly Widescreen Vistonics 'knobs-on-glass' functionality helps you effortlessly see and access settings for 16 channels side by side, all on a single 22” touchscreen. The upper half of this screen handles Output section control, Cue List, or Menu displays. Two rows of 16 rotary encoders control parameters, core snapshot, talkback, and monitoring.
Meanwhile, Soundcraft’s Faderglow™ color coding illuminates the fader slots according to function using clearly defined colors for even better at-a-glance organization.
