The Vi3000 from Soundcraft is a 96-channel digital mixing console specifically intended for live sound applications. Boasting a modern aesthetic, upgraded technology, and packed with professional-grade features, this mixing console offers expanded functionality that allows it to be used by two operators simultaneously.
Experience expanded features such as the Vi3000’s 36 faders, 24 mono/stereo busses, and a sweeping black screen panel with four Vistonics II™ touchscreen interfaces with sleek, updated 3D graphics. Its rear panel connections include a comprehensive set of analog and digital inputs and outputs, as well as MIDI, USB, Ethernet, DVI out, Dante/MADI record feed outputs, redundant power supply, and more.
Scale up your live sound with the Vi3000. Two expansion bays can be fitted with MADI Stagebox cards to connect multiple Soundcraft Stagebox input expander modules. Also compatible is the Realtime Rack, a hardware/software unit designed in with Universal Audio to provide access to 74 industry-standard UAD plug-ins. An integrated Dante interface allows for seamless digital audio networking with Dante-enabled devices.
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. Other controls and settings are also available, such as the ability to store and recall snapshots and cues. Use Soundcraft's ViSi app to remote control your mix from an iPad. Additional features include built-in Lexicon reverb/delays, dbx compression, effects, and more.
