Soundcraft GB8-40 Channel, 8 Bus Mixer

You could have this desk at your event!

The Soundcraft GB8-40 Channel, 8 Bus Mixer can have up to 40 microphones connected and also has an additional 4 stereo inputs ideal for effects returns, keyboards, synths and decks. This desk is a particular favourite of mine, especially for the inserts on all the bus channels which makes it ideal for compressing groups of instruments – ideal for quick setups where tight band change overs are important. This desk also features group mutes on all the buses. The desk also features inserts on every channel for compression, gating and EQ. There are also direct outs sockets on all channels for recording events.
