Best In Class
A lot of digital mixers in this price range tend to skimp on quality to obtain the target price. The only thing I feel Soundcraft did to obtain the target price was subtract things they thought people could live without. There is not one feature on this console I do not use and with the addition of the iPad app, I don't need expensive scribble strips. The sound quality is all there, the preamps sound like Soundcraft, the gates work, the compressors compress, and the Lexicon is real the Lexicon. I also use a console 10x the cost of this one and I can't use the effects because they're terrible, but you can't go wrong with the Lexicon in these Soundcraft consoles. All in all, compared to other consoles in this price range, you get more than what you pay for because it sounds fantastic.
The difference was immediate and dramatically better
Our church recently replaced an analog board with the Si 24. We expected improved sound quality but were elated with the dramatic enhancements. The on-board features of the Si 24 improved "the sound" in every aspect of worship from live and recorded music to the spoken word.
Perfect transition to digital!!!
I purchased this board after demoing a performer from a vendor. For the price I couldn't pass on this board. Previously I was using a Mackie 1604 with outboard processing. Now my foh rig takes up 1/3 of the space, one outlet as opposed to 7 and I have 200X the control I had before. Can't wait to get an ipad and set up the wireless control!!!
Soundcraft Si Expression
Soundcraft did it again and I'm hooked! Great sound,features such as Fader Glow, BSS GEQ,Fader layering, and Lexicon effects. Couldn't ask for a better mixer!
This thing is the real deal
First of all its a live mixing console with function and fidelity at its core. Also its Not some cheep audio interface that calls itself a mixer. I love it! I mix on a Vi6 on a daily basis and the Si expression SOUNDS AMAZING. Has GEQ's on all outs so right there it's better than the LS9. I'll put it this way I have mixed on a plethora of digital consoles from an O1v to an XL8 if you want a "Live", expandable, console on the cheap GRAB ONE.
