Soundcraft 5031234 Compact Stage Box - 32 In / 16 Line Out, CAT5 Version

Expand Your Live Sound Capabilities with Soundcraft Compact Stagebox
The Soundcraft Compact Stagebox is an essential extension for Soundcraft digital live sound consoles, including the Vi Series, Si Series, Vi1, and SI Compact. It offers a cost-effective solution for expanding your console's capabilities, providing a dense array of I/O connections within a compact 4U rack space. This makes it an ideal choice for venues, touring companies, and corporate events looking to enhance their audio setup without requiring extensive space.

High-Density I/O Configuration for Maximum Flexibility
Outfitted as standard with 32 mic/line inputs, 8 line outputs, and 8 channels of AES/EBU outputs, the Compact Stagebox delivers extensive connectivity. Additionally, it features 2 expansion slots for standard Studer D21m I/O cards, which support a variety of digital formats such as CobraNet®, AVIOM A-Net®16, Ethersound, ADAT, and RockNet. This flexibility ensures the stagebox can integrate seamlessly with a wide range of audio systems and setups.

Customizable Setup to Suit Any Requirement
The modular design of the Compact Stagebox allows for significant customization. It can be reconfigured to include up to 48 mic/line inputs by substituting an output module with an additional 16 mic/line input XLR module. Moreover, output options are still available via D-Type connectors using D21m cards, providing tailored solutions to meet specific event requirements or venue needs.

Interchangeable Modules for Enhanced Operational Efficiency
Utilizing the same Mic/line I/O modules found in the Soundcraft Vi1 console, the Compact Stagebox offers the unique advantage of interchangeable modules between the console and stagebox. This interchangeability is particularly useful in dynamic live event environments where quick adaptability is crucial. Modules can be moved or shared between the console and stagebox, ensuring optimal configuration for every performance.

Reliable and Robust Connection Options
The Stagebox ensures a reliable and high-quality connection to the host console via Cat-5 or Optical-fibre MADI, similar to the larger 64 Mic/line Vi6 Stagebox. It also supports redundant MADI cable capabilities to safeguard against connectivity issues during live performances. Each unit is equipped with twin redundant power supplies, thermostatically-controlled fan cooling, and comprehensive LED status monitoring, enhancing its reliability and usability in live scenarios.
