Optimized for the computer-based home studio!

The Soundcraft COMPACT 10 mixer is perfectly suited to many applications requiring simple mix facilities, but it really comes into its own during computer-based recording. It's simple to route an input straight to the record output simply by selecting the Record button on the channel. The COMPACT 10 is equipped with 4 mic inputs with high-quality mic preamps and phantom power plus line inputs, and a DI input for instruments, plus stereo inputs for keyboards, CD/tape, or turntables (with RIAA equalization). The DI input matches the input impedance of the mixer to the output impedance of the instrument, ensuring optimum pro-quality audio capture. Zero-latency monitoring while recording is enhanced with a blend control that lets you balance playback with the track being recorded for ideal headphone output for artists and engineers.
