Sujet Soundcraft Signature MTK series

Le prix est dingue ! 

Enfin un concurrent de la Allen & Heath ZED R16 ? Je suis grave intéressé. 

Edit : plus d'infos de la part du gars de chez Soundcraft, sur Gearslutz : 

Hey guys,

This is Sean from the Soundcraft team (the guy in all the videos you are seeing). Just here to answer your questions about the Signature Series. I'll try my best to summarise everything I've seen so far in terms of questions:

-Low-latency ASIO drivers are available... we've tested 24-in/22-out at 64 sample buffer depth. No drop-outs at all. 3.6ms of latency total (in->out). Of course adding plug-ins adds latency to this and this also depends on your computers performance.

-Phantom Power is global (people have pointed out where the switch is). We did this to keep cost down. The cool thing is it doesn't really affect anything.... your condensers get the 48V they need and your dynamic mics are unaffected, so it isn't such a big deal. The only annoying this is unplugging mics... You'll get a loud POP if you do it when the 48V is on.

-This is designed to be a replacement for a USB interface whilst giving you a full analogue mixer... and not just any mixer, a Soundcraft analogue mixer... only the best 

-All the inputs ALWAYS send down the USB channel of the same number, i.e. Channel 1 on the console -> USB 1, Channel 2 -> USB2, and so on... The USB send point is post-gain and pre-limiter/HPF/EQ. Another send point would add considerable cost and would not jive with the goal we had with the Signature MTKs: to make it very affordable. On the 12MTK, USB 13/14 is the master bus pre-fader. And on the Signature 22MTK, USB 23/24 is the master bus pre-fader. This allows you to get analogue summing back in your DAW. You have +22dB of headroom on the Signature (hit that master bus HARD, it sounds great!) and the 0dbFS point for the USB send on the master bus is maximised to take advantage of this... analogue clipping = GOOD. digital clipping = BAD. 

-US Street pricing is INDEED $399 for the Signature 12MTK and $799 for the Signature 22MTK. No typo.  I'm glad you guys get how good that price is. We worked REALLY hard to hit it.

So I think that handles the majority of the questions. If you guys have any others, let me know.

And just wait til you hear this thing. Ghost mic pre's sound awesome. Sapphyre EQ is the best EQ I've ever heard on a desk for this price. Lexicon FX and dbx limiters are great for live use but also work in the studio. And the analogue summing bus will give that warmth to your mixes and bring it back in your DAW.

And yes, shipping in March. Can't wait til you guys hear it and get your hands on it. 

All the best guys!
Sean

ADD: I forgot to say, it's 24-bit/48kHz... the driver and the A/D converters support other sampling rates as well but we have yet to implement it... Should be implemented by the time it ships
