INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of a SPIRIT Monitor mixer.
Owning a Soundcraft console brings you the expertise and
support of one of the industry’s leading manufacturers and
the results of over 17 years experience supporting some of the
biggest names in the business.
Designed by engineers who understand the individual needs
of musicians, SPIRIT Monitor has been built to the highest
standards using quality components and employing auto-
mated assembly techniques beyond the reach of most
manufacturers of compact mixers.
A rugged steel chassis is combined with moulded side trims
to give protection and distinctive appearance. Custom-
moulded controls, designed for the best ‘feel’ and visual
clarity complement the styling, resulting in a truly profes-
sional stage monitor mixer which is ideal for both touring and
fixed installations.
SPIRIT
Monitor is available in 16 and 24 channel frame sizes,
and is designed to complement the SPIRIT Live range of
front- of-house consoles.
SPIRIT
Monitor incorporates circuit technology identical to
that used on some of the most sophisticated Soundcraft con-
soles. The input channels are able to accept a wide range of
Microphone and Line level signals from separate input sock-
ets. Every channel features wide range gain control, phase
reverse switch, 3-band Equalisation with swept Mid and LF
range, plus a Hi-Pass Filter, 8 Monitor Sends, PFL(Pre Fade
Listen), Peak LED and a high-quality linear fader.
Each of the eight Monitor Output sections is provided with a
variable high-pass filter, insert point, LED bargraph meter,
Talkback and Dim switches, a variable send to the engineer’s
wedge and a high quality linear fader.
The master section comprises controls for PFL monitoring, en-
gineer’s wedge, LED bargraph meter for Wedge/PFL and
master Talkback and Dim switches. The wedge output is pro-
vided with an insert point and high quality linear fader.
SPIRIT
Monitor is designed to be as user-friendly as possible,
but a few minutes spent reading through this manual will
help you become familiar with the product away from the
pressure of a live session, and allow you to gain full benefit
from the superb performance offered by your new mixer.
