GB2R Joins Soundcraft's GB Console Series

Jan 8, 2008 6:50 PM

The Soundcraft GB Series has added the Soundcraft GB2R to their lineup, a 19-inch rackmountable mixer designed specifically for smaller installations in churches and performance venues, or for small portable PA systems. The feature set will also likely appeal to broadcast applications.

 

Available in two variants, the GB2R offers either 16 mono inputs to a stereo mix output, or a 12.2 version with 12 mono inputs, two full-feature stereo inputs and two group buses, each model having six auxiliary sends. Emphasis has reportedly been placed on operational simplicity, an intuitive layout and the highest possible audio performance. The Soundcraft GB2R inherits both the GB30 mic preamplifier and GB30 equalizer designs from the larger GB4 and GB8. For ease of installation, the connector section is contained in a rotatable pod, allowing cable access from the top of the mixer if placed on a tabletop or from the rear when mounted in a 19-inch rack. Two stereo returns and a two-track input are provided, which means that the GB2R-12.2 model can offer up to 26 inputs to mix in a mixer just 19 inches wide; every input has a pre/post switchable direct output for recording or effects sends, while an internal universal voltage PSU avoids external power supply connections.
