New Local Rack - more I/O, more connections, more power to you High-density, 64 mic in/32 line out, conﬁgurable I/O modules

The latest incarnation of the Local Rack boosts I/O up to 384 and is

loaded with additional card slots to allow simultaneous use with two

Stageboxes, 2 recording cards and the Realtime Rack MADI interface.

Various operating modes are available using a combination of DSP cards

- 128 inputs/32 stereo busses @ 48kHz (5 DSP cards)

- 64 inputs/32 stereo busses @ 96kHz (8 DSP cards)

Cat5 or Cat7 cables with Amphenol RJF connectors provide a convenient,

highly robust connection between the Soundcraft Vi Series™ stageboxes

and local rack enabling the mixing position to be located up to 100

metres from the stage. And in larger venues and installations, an optional

Fibre Optic interface allows a run of up to 1.5 kilometres between the

stagebox and the local rack.

A comprehensive provision of inputs and outputs can be patched to any

channel input, direct output, bus output or insert point as required.

New Active Breakout Box

The local rack has 16 analogue line inputs, 3 analogue mic/line inputs, a

talkback mic input (mounted on the control surface) and 8 pairs of AES/

EBU inputs. Outputs include 16 analogue line, 8 pairs of AES/EBU, 3 LCR

local monitor A line, 2 LR local monitor B line and TB line.

The standard Vi stagebox houses 64 analogue mic/line inputs and 32

analogue line outputs, with 48V phantom power and a 100Hz HPF

before the A-D converters. Mic amp gain can be controlled remotely

from the control surface. Optional AES/EBU inputs and outputs are

available for the stagebox in sections of 8, as are optional cards for

a wide variety of audio interface standards including Dante, Blulink,

Cobranet, Aviom A-Net16 and Ethersound.

Up to 5 stageboxes can be connected to create a digital patchbay,

where the operator can select the sources for the 128 inputs to the

console from a selection of inputs available on any of the connected

stageboxes.

In addition to the 64-input Stagebox, Vi5000 and Vi7000 consoles

can also be used with the smaller Compact Stagebox (32 or 48

inputs) or the Mini Stagebox MSB16 or MSB32, where I/O needs to

be expanded in space-restricted environments.
