Soundcraft is releasing a new range of small multipurpose mixers, some with integral digital FX, bearing the name of the Notepad Series.
The new Notepad 102, 124 and 124 FX models provide Soundcraft audio performance with the GB30 mic preamp and EQ technology in a highly compact and solid chassis.
Each 124 model has four mono mic/line inputs while the Notepad 102 has two mono mic/line inputs.
All models have four stereo line inputs, and suit a very wide range of applications where simple yet high-quality mixing is required, such as in home recording, small band/cabaret PA systems, AV presentation systems, small broadcast edit suites, educational environments and general contracting.
The Notepad 124FX also has an integral digital effects processor which has a feed from every input and over 100 effects, including a pink noise and test setting.
The FX control can also be used to set delay tap tempo, a feature not found in many mixers in this class.
On the Notepad 124, the FX send is replaced by a standard AUX send with a dedicated output. Both models provide a recording output of the mix on RCA/Phono connectors as well as a stereo input for CD playback, etc.
Other functions include a high-pass filter on the mono inputs, a 60mm fader for the mix output selectable sensitivity of +4dBu or 1-dBv on each stereo input (Notepad 124 models only), and multi-segment LED metering on the mix output, along with a headphone monitoring output.
