INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing a Soundcraft MPMi/MFXi mixer. The MPMi and MFXi ranges are our most
Owning a Soundcraft console brings you the expertise and support of one of the industry’s leading manufacturers, and the results of over three decades of supporting some of the biggest names in the business. Our knowledge has been attained through working in close contact with leading professionals and institutes to bring you products designed to get the best possible results from your mixing. Built to the highest standards using quality components and surface mount technology, the MPMi/MFXi is designed to be as easy to use as possible. We have spent years researching the most efficient methods of control for two key reasons:
1)Engineers, musicians, writers and programmers all need to have very few interruptions to the creative process; our products have been designed to be almost transparent, allowing this process to breathe.
2)Whether performing or recording, time is a very expensive and rare commodity. Our products have a user interface which is recognised by millions to be the industry standard because of its efficiency.
The sonic qualities of our products are exemplary - some of the same circuits which are used on our most expensive consoles are employed in the MPMi/ MFXi, bringing you the great Soundcraft quality in a small format console without compromise.
You will also be glad to know you have a one year warranty with your product from the date of purchase. The MPMi/MFXi has been designed using the latest
The entire MPMi/MFXi range is manufactured using some of the most advanced techniques in the world, from high density surface mount PCB technology, to computer aided test equipment able to measure signals well outside the range of normal hearing. As each console passes through to be quality checked before packing, there is also a human listening station. Something we have learnt over the years is that the human touch counts - and only by using people can you ensure the product meets the high demands of the user.
ADVICE FOR THOSE WHO PUSH THE BOUNDARIES
Although your new console will not output any sound until you feed it signals, it has the capability to produce sounds which when monitored through an amplifier or headphones can damage hearing over time.
Please take care when working with your audio - if you are manipulating controls which you don’t understand (which we all do when we are learning), make sure your monitors are turned down. Remember that your ears are the most important tool of your trade, look after them, and they will look after you.
Most importantly - don’t be afraid to experiment to find out how each parameter affects the sound - this will extend your creativity and help you to get the best from your mixer and the most respect from your artists and audience.
