Product information

General

The grey Soundcraft Signature 22 MTK analogue mixer is the multitrack version of the blue Signature 22. Apart from it being a different colour, the Signature 22 MTK also has a USB interface that transmits all 22 channels individually to your PC or Mac instead of a stereo mix. This particular model can receive no fewer than 24 channels from your computer, which is essential if you want give your fans the most accurate reproduction of your live recordings possible. With the exception of the above-mentioned features, the MTK is similar to the standard Signature 22, and offers the same characteristic, British, high-quality sound and solid construction.

The Signature 22 MTK: British Sound

The high-quality, dynamic and natural-sounding Ghost preamplifiers and Sapphire Eqs combine to create the unique, characteristic Soundcraft sound of this analogue mixer. Next to the unmistakable Soundcraft sound, this Signature 22 MTK features high-end Lexicon effects and ample connectors and controls. The five aux outputs allow you to connect no fewer than five monitors, and adjust each individual monitor mix with the aux volume controls on each channel.

Compared to the Signature 16

The Signature 22 MTK is one of the biggest analogue mixers in the entire Soundcraft Signature series, and with the addition of a multitrack USB interface, four more mic/line inputs (XLR/jack), and an extra stereo channel, it’s a big step up from the Signature 16. Moreover, the 22 MTK features five aux outputs instead of four, eight limiters as opposed to four, and a dual effects unit that allows you to use two effects at the same time on the same channel. Alternatively, you can simply use the 100mm faders to create two submixes!

Tips or comments about this product

Please note: Ableton Live Lite 9 makes 4-channel recordings, and does not have the capability to make full 14IN/12-OUT multi-track recordings. For full functionality, you'll need to buy the upgrade.

While it was working it was good, but been back to Bax twice with serious faults in 3 years, and now broken again, despite never having left my studio!

Soundcraft Signature 22 MTK Analogue Mixer

Soundcraft Signature 22 MTK analoog mengpaneel.
Nu een paar maanden in de band oefenruimte, en met name de de opnames op de computer vind ik heel goed voor een apparaat in deze prijsklasse. Gebruik daarvoor Cubase elements 10. Koste wel even moeite alles uit te vinden hoe het een en ander met elkaar samen werkte. Met name de drum, 7 microfoons, klinkt heel goed. Het enige merkwaardige vind ik dat er geen aan en uit knop op zit, maar dit is een detail voor zo'n goed apparaat.

Snel Reaper geïnstalleerd, die is gratis en veel een veel makkelijker!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mag ik even opmerken dat Reaper NIET GRATIS IS!
Je kunt Reaper vrij zonder beperking testen en kost daarna gewoon $60,00.
Reaper gaat er van uit dat je zo sportief bent een license te kopen! Dit ter info!

Soundcraft Signature 22 MTK Analogue Mixer

Prima apparaat, goede eq.
Wat ik erg vervelend vind is dat ik 16 kanalen drums heb en maar 8 limiters.
Voor de prijs heb je echt wel iets moois echter!
De meegeleverde Ableton Live 9 vind ik wél een ramp. Ik snap niet dat Soundcraft daarmee heult. Misschien voor de electronische muziek nichten...
Snel Reaper geïnstalleerd, die is gratis en veel een veel makkelijker!

Pré's: eq!, pre-amps, precies genoeg kanalen

-Cons: 3 vrije auxilairies... 3! Waarom niet 4? Ik em vele anderen hebben standaard 4 groepjes monitoren op het podium..
-Grootste gemis: Analoge Inserpoints!
-Klote dat je steeds maar 2 kanalen (stereo of sub1/2 kunt bouncen om met je eq in DAW te mixen! Denk je 22 kanalen te hebben... NOT!

Ow, de Lexicon effecten... Leuke spielerei, maar zo beperkt!

Soundcraft Signature 22 MTK Analogue Mixer

Fantastisch product, ongelooflijke snelheid. Enkel een latency.... van enkele maanden. Nog steeds niet te krijgen. Enig nieuws of dit eigenlijk wel leverbaar gaat worden?
