Compact Mixer with Quality Built In

Looking for a simple, easy-to-use mixer that delivers an exceptional audio performance? For recording, live, install or broadcast use there's a Soundcraft EPM mixer for you. EPM is available in three models: EPM8 (6 mono inputs), EPM8 (8 Mono inputs), and EPM 12 (12 Mono inputs), each with 2 stereo channels as standard.

Soundcraft EPM8 Mixer at a Glance:
  • Quality audio performance with premium preamps
  • Balanced inputs with inserts
  • Unique Peak LEDs monitor the entire signal path

Quality audio performance with premium preamps
The emphasis with the Soundcraft EPM Series is very firmly on quality audio performance, with an easy-to-understand control surface uncluttered by unnecessary features. The EPM8 features Soundcraft's premium GB30 mic preamp (as used on the large-format LX7ii and GB Series desks) to provide high headroom and
precision control of mic signals.

Balanced inputs with inserts
Mic and line inputs are provided on balanced XLR and 1/4" jack connectors, with the main stereo outputs on balanced XLRs for best integration with other professional equipment. There are also insert points on every mono channel and the mix outputs for external signal processing.

Unique Peak LEDs monitor the entire signal path
Because levels are constantly changing throughout the signal path - from the preamp stage, through filtering and EQ - the EPM mixers provide peak LEDs on all input channels. These monitoring LEDs are fed from multiple points in the signal path to ensure nothing is overlooked. The LEDs also employ proportional illumination to show signal level when approaching peaks, allowing you to maximize the quality of any signal by utilizing all the available headroom. The main stereo mix has 10-segment LED meters, with a PFL Active
indicator to show whether any channels are being soloed.

Soundcraft EPM8 Mixer Features:
  • Eight mic/line inputs plus two stereo line ins
  • Two configurable auxiliary buses
  • XLR-type and 1/4" metal jack connector sockets
  • RCA phono stereo playback inputs and record outputs
  • 3-band EQ with a swept mid on mono inputs
  • 2-band EQ on stereo inputs
  • TRS insert sockets and inserts on all mono inputs and mix output
  • 10-segment LED output metering
  • Intuitive and comprehensive solo system
  • Headphone output
  • Easily rackmountable with optional kit
  • 3.56"(H) x 14.25"(D) x 13.0"(W)
The Soundcraft EPM8 Mixer delivers premium audio quality!

Soundcraft EPM8 10-channel Analog Mixer

The mixer was well packaged and I got fast shipping from Sweetwater. All the pots and faders had a nice feel and good resistance. It has a great build quality.I didn't need a bunch of effects, and this mixer fit the bill. A great price, just what I needed. Thanks again Sweetwater!!!

A simple analog mixer addition

I bought a simple Soundcraft EMP8 in order to start a home studio. I had a Behringer mixer from 2001 that was no longer working quietly. The EMP8 provided all I need for a basic setup of a TEAC 3340, a DX7, A Yamaha DGX300, and the new MOTU M4 audio interface. It is high quality, quiet, and all I need at a good price; no problems. The nice part is the ability to physically see each fader and its position with good markings on the dials - before the digital breakdown.

perfect mixer

I've owned behringer and mackie mixers in the past; this one is better by a long shot. Awesome preamps and eq, tons of headroom, no noise, great construction and parts, looks great and it's pretty low profile. No bells and whistles to distract you, just straightforward layout, great looks and great sound. Also love the sturdy power cable and how it plugs in underneath the board so it's never in the way. I really can't say enough good things about this mixer.
Rated 5/5

This did an excellent job

I was looking for 8 identical preamplifiers to record a drumkit away from my home studio with multiple mics. This was the most affordable option and also allows for a lot of different uses in the future for its versatility.

The recordings came out excellent. There was no noticeable noise, good clean highs on the cymbals, nice low on the kick and toms. I never had an overdrive/distortion issue either so they must have good clean headroom.

I like the basic no fancy frills for this but at least it had separate outs for each channel (using the inserts) and a way to set the levels very accurately with the PFL feature and the peak-response LED metering that has a 3dB resolution in the area where it counts.

I got this to replace a crappy Behringer that never worked well on one channel and then up-and-died while not being used. Up and died. Though the Soundcraft doesn't have all the features of the Behringer, I really never used them anyways, so no great loss.

Seems to be built solid. The faders and knobs don't have the cheap almost-about-to-break feel of "other" models out there.

I have and use Mackie, Yamaha, and Ramsa mixers regularly, and this appears to be as good as these other pro-quality brands. It performed like those, but at probably 1/2 to 1/3 the cost!
Rated 4.5/5

Sounds great

Excellent mixer and built like a tank. That's both a pro & con. Very durable feeling. 1/2 star off because of weight. Provides excellent performance.
