Soundcraft COMPACT 4 Compact Audio Mixer

4 Channel Compact Mixer w/ 3-band EQ & Phantom Power

Ideal for recording vocals and music onto computers using a soundcard!

The Soundcraft COMPACT 4 mixer is perfectly suited to many applications requiring simple mix facilities, but it comes into its own when used for recording vocals and music onto computers using a soundcard. It is simple to route an input straight to the record output simply by selecting the RECORD button on the channel.

A wide variety of input sources are catered for on this simple 4-input mixer. These include microphone, line, and a special “DI” or “Direct” input for guitars and keyboards, plus stereo inputs for keyboards, CD/tape, or turntable (with RIAA equalization).

It is also easy to listen while recording thanks to a special blend control that allows you to control the mix of the computer playback mix and the signal of the track being recorded.

Other standard features on the COMPACT include 3 band EQ on the inputs, along with professional 48V phantom power for condenser microphones, dedicated balanced and unbalanced Record and Playback connections, independent engineer & artist headphone outputs, and monitor outputs. The dual headphone feeds provide a level of monitoring normally found in large commercial studios.
