Soundcraft Signature Plus 22 Analog Mixer with Lexicon Effects and USB-C
Product Description
The Soundcraft Signature Plus 22 Analog Mixer with Lexicon Effects and USB-C is designed for live engineers, musicians, producers, podcasters, and content creators. Its 22 input channels provide plenty of mixing capacity, backed by Ghost mic preamps, Sapphyre EQ, and dbx one-knob compressors for straightforward control over gain, tone, and dynamics. Built-in Lexicon hardware effects add creative processing, with Store and Tap Tempo functions helping you manage effects settings.
A 4x4 USB-C interface handles high-resolution recording and playback with laptops or mobile devices, helping you combine analog mixing with software-based production. Four Aux sends, Mix to Auxes, a dedicated Listen bus, and selectable Talkback To routing provide flexible monitoring options. Simple Success Metering gives you clear visual feedback across inputs and outputs, while colour-coded buttons, tactile controls, and smooth faders make adjustments quick and easy to locate.
Shape every source with confidence
Ghost mic preamps provide smooth high-gain behaviour and harmonic character, giving connected microphones a solid foundation for your mix. Sapphyre EQ then provides musical tone shaping across individual sources. For dynamics, built-in dbx one-knob compressors with harmonic enhancement keep compression straightforward, particularly when you're working with voices and acoustic instruments. TRS insert points also let you bring compatible external processors into individual signal paths when more specialised processing is needed. With 22 input channels available, you have the space to manage larger live, studio, and production setups while keeping the essential sound-shaping controls directly within reach.
Add Lexicon effects at the console
The built-in Lexicon hardware processor lets you add effects without introducing a separate effects unit to your setup. Store functionality provides a convenient way to retain presets, while Tap Tempo gives you hands-on timing control for suitable effects. The surrounding controls are arranged to help you navigate the console quickly. Colour-coded buttons make different functions easier to distinguish, while tactile squircle-shaped knobs help you identify controls by touch. Smooth faders provide precise level adjustment too, making the Signature Plus 22 easier to operate when you're balancing numerous sources during live performances, recording sessions, or content production.
Connect recording and playback over USB-C
The integrated 4x4 USB-C interface connects the Signature Plus 22 directly to laptops or mobile devices for recording and playback. The supplied specifications list 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.1kHz, 96kHz, 176.2kHz, and 196kHz sample rates. USB inputs can be routed through channel strips, allowing computer playback to become part of your wider mix. Alternatively, USB can override the mix for uses such as break music and DJ playback. Direct USB returns can also feed the monitoring section, giving you a convenient way to manage computer audio and analog sources through the same mixing setup.
Keep monitoring flexible and organised
Four Aux sends give you flexible options for creating separate monitoring feeds, while Mix to Auxes helps keep control of those outputs straightforward. A dedicated Listen bus lets you check channels without interrupting the main mix being heard by performers or your audience. Talkback To routing lets you choose which outputs receive communication, helping you direct instructions where they're needed. Headphone and control room outputs provide further monitoring options with Mute, Dim, and Mono Sum controls. You can monitor Auxes, Listen, Mix, or direct USB returns, while Simple Success Metering provides quick visual feedback across the console's inputs and outputs.
