Soundcraft EPM12 Analog Mixer - Secondhand

Full Description

GB30 Mic preamps for pristine audio

The Soundcraft EPM12 is equipped with GB30 mic preamps, designed by Graham Blyth for Soundcraft's 30th anniversary. These preamps offer high-resolution adjustment over a 55dB gain range, providing transparent sound and +22dB headroom. They ensure clear and detailed audio capture, making it perfect for both live and studio settings.

Advanced signal monitoring

The EPM12 features a unique PEAK LED system, offering multipoint signal take-offs to monitor overload in various parts of the channel strip. The LED brightens as the signal approaches peak levels, giving you precise control and preventing distortion.

User-friendly layout

With a straightforward control surface free from unnecessary features, the EPM12 is easy to navigate. The 60mm high-quality faders ensure smooth channel control, while the intuitive solo system and ten-segment LED output metering provide comprehensive oversight of your mix.

Versatile connectivity

The EPM12 offers versatile connectivity options, including XLR-type and 1/4 metal jack connectors, RCA phono stereo playback inputs, and record outputs. TRS insert sockets on all mono inputs and the mix output allow easy integration with various audio equipment.

Durable and adaptable

Built for a range of applications, the EPM12 is easily rack mountable and robustly constructed for reliable performance. Its durable design makes it suitable for live music, recording studios, houses of worship, and multi-speaker installations, ensuring it meets the needs of any audio professional.
