The new MH3 multi-purpose live performance mixer from Soundcraft.
UK - UK console manufacturer Soundcraft has launched the second in its new range of multi-purpose live performance mixers, the MH3. The new design follows Soundcraft's highly successful MH4 console, bringing the benefits of dual-mode operation at a lower price level, achieved through an appropriate feature set and mechanical and electronic designs that permit lower manufacturing costs.

"The success of the MH4 has shown that people really want this flexibility, and by bringing out the MH3 we are offering that flexibility to a wider section of the market," states Soundcraft product manager, Andy Brown. The MH3 features eight groups, 12 auxiliary busses, the same new mic amp and EQ designs as the MH4, eight VCA and eight Mute groups with snapshot automation, true LCR panning and outputs, and an integral 12x4 matrix. Consoles are available in 24, 32, 40, 48 and 56 mono input frames, each with four stereo inputs as standard.

This console really offers an impressive line up of features for a console in its price range, and is sure to find favour with national and regional touring companies as well as theatres and corporate production companies. The multipurpose topology allows companies to maximize inventory investment by using one type of console in several roles. In some cases, one MH3 console may need to fulfil both FOH and monitor duties, and does so with ease.
