Premium mic pres

When he was dreaming up the Lx7ii 24, Soundcraft founder, Graham Blyth, was determined to provide the best possible quality at the best price for the customer. With this philosophy in mind, Blyth went to work on the new Lx7ii series, taking the high-end mic pre design found on Soundcraft's larger consoles and integrating it into this smaller desk. The result is astounding - the Lx7ii sounds incredible and is offered at an extremely affordable price!

Redesigned EQ section

The LX7ii's new 4-band EQ section is based on the EQ used in the high-end MH series. The high and low shelving sections have much steeper slopes than usual, which can help reduce mid-frequency harshness in the high band and that dreaded muddiness in the low. The LX7ii also has two swept mid frequencies, carefully selected for maximum control during live performances. Every band provides 15dB of cut or boost, and there is a dedicated bypass switch, allowing you to compare treated and untreated sounds without having to completely reset the controls.

Multiple routing possibilities

With six flexible auxiliary sends, the user can choose between monitor or effects-oriented mixes. Auxes 1-6 are generally post-fader, post-EQ, but auxes 1-4 can be switched in pairs to be pre-fader, post EQ, making 4 pre-fader foldback mixes or 6 post-fader effects sends possible.

Soundcraft LX7ii 24 Features:
  • 24 input channels
  • 48v phantom power switched in blocks of four
  • 1/4" line input jack for balanced or unbalanced instruments
  • GB30 padless mic preamp provides up to +15dBu input capability
  • 18dB per octave highpass filter straight after preamp
  • Pre-fade, pre-EQ (but post highpass filter) insert point
  • Direct outputs on all but the last 8 channels
  • Premium mic pres
  • Enhanced, switching EQ section
  • 6 flexible aux sends
  • Pre-fader, post-EQ soloing
  • LED doubles as a peak indicator
  • Stereo input section
  • Group, master, and control room sections
The Soundcraft Lx7ii 24 is an excellent mixer for both recording as well as live sound applications!

Best analog mixer for home studio

I love working with this mixer in my home studio, for me one of the best mixes of 24 analogue channels
by Glauber Lemes from Ma on
Music background: Producer and engineer

Solid Live Sound mixer

I used the 32 channel version of this board for nearly five years at my previous church and never had issues with it. The only change we made was to hardwire aux-send 5 and 6 to pre instead of post because we needed more sends as the team grew.

EQ is very usable, the summing sounds great, the faders are very responsive. Never had glitching or crackling in the channels, the sound was always solid. It's built tough and it's heavy. I had an accomplished musician once tell me that it sounded better than some multimillion dollar churches, and I was using this board to create the sound. That's pretty high praise for an analog console.

Not sure what the dude below is on about when he said the signal goes to both 1+2 and 3+4 subgroups. This is easily remedied with the use of the pan knob. I will say however that the subgroups didn't sound as punchy as the main mix bus, so I didn't use them much. But I did use them to create a vocal subgroup FX send when all of our auxes got used up for monitors.

Also, I may agree that the talk back isn't ideal, but we never used it anyway. I prefer to set my talkback up through an empty channel and use the auxes to send tech chatter to the musicians.

This is a very powerful board for the money. It's built to last and sounds pretty darn good. Purchase this product with confidence.

Update to my last review

So I've had some more time to spend with this board and I think I should add some details to my initial review.

This board is a value proposition where mono channel inputs, 24 of them, has been made the main priority.

The stereo input channels are functional but not great, the GB4 with full feature stereo channels is definitely a step up.

Again, the mic pres get noisy and ugly past halfway.

The EQ's are functional but not great.

I had to turn my monitor amps up 10db and the main speakers up 9 db to get back to what all other mixers were outputting.

On a plus, the simplicity allows untrained people to walk right up and use it.

Aux monitoring is really good and the headphone output works good for my usage.

very good mixer

very good mixer. I have tried a bunch of other mixers, (,studiomaster,trident 8t, Aries, tascam digital)) and this one works well for me. solid metal jacks, good pre's and the summing amp is quite good. direct outs are useful, good aux availability, good busses. Quiet, and punchy board ! sonically not a neve or ssl, but quite good.

Be careful what you wish for....

Well, it will get the job done, but it isn't pretty.

If you are a band, a house of worship, or a school on a budget, this is your mixer. The sound goes in and the sound goes out, it is clean and clear, but this mixer has it limitations in a professional setting. If you want to do anything really serious like a musical, get something else, this mixer is not designed for that.

Pros;
-Cheap
-24 Channels
-Compact

Cons;
-No -20db PAD, has a VERY hot gain, this is painful when you are using wireless lavs.
-The "four groups" are really 2 stereo groups, you can not select individual groups, it just goes to 3+4 or 1+2, not 1 or 2 or 3 or 4.
-The stereo channels are terrible, 2 band eq, no faders
-The phantom power is in GROUPS of 4 channels
-The TB interface is annoying
-All the outputs are on the back making it difficult to patch
-It rises at an ugly angle that is very uncomfortable
-It doesn't look nice, I know that doesn't matter, but if it costs 1,700 bucks, at least make it look nice.
