Hi, I've just purchased a an EFX8 mixer. Not even after reading the manual, I could not make the 2 track in input to give me sound in the headphones. The 2 buttons (to track and to mix) seem to have no effect. Is it possible to have a malfunction or what do I have to do?

[SoundcraftUK]

Hi; sounds like you have a PFL or AFL active somewhere... Is the master PFL/AFL light on? What is showing on the meters? What do you hear in the headphones?

Hi soundcraft. would this be a good mixer for a band or live performace's //Small venue// if so please reply i need to know please

[SoundcraftUK]

The audio and build quality will be great but that's not really what the question is about... Our question comes back to you as does it have enough channels, buses and any other critical features that you need.

Hi, simple question. I will be using the 8 channel version of this mixer for gigs. We will be using backing tracks from my macbook, electric drums from the drummer and my vocals. Our drummer needs to monitor my vocals along with his drums separate from the backing track and main mix. How would I send him just the drums and vocals from the desk to his active monitor?

Thanks

Ed

You'd make a mix on the AUX bus that includes the audio parts you require, else if the drummer has his own mixer you can 'y' split your mic to his mixer and he can add more or less of your vocal as needed.

But will it mix?

@SoundcraftUK Ok ,thanks very much Richard for your quick reply,I see the DBX Drive Rack systems also incorperate limiting which would be very handy to have. instead of using seperate limiters and eq's etc.

[SoundcraftUK]

Hi Nick, no is the straight answer here.. sounds to me like what you need is a system processor that has independent control for room EQ and system(speaker) EQ - these are similar but very different processes that should not be confused. A product like the DBX Drive Rack is something you should look at:

Hi Soundcraft, do you manifacture a stereo eq unit that would compliment the mfx8 for fine tuning of frequencies for different venue applications?

I think a Soundcraft eq would look cool in my flight case with the Soundcraft mfx8.

Many thanks.

Regards

Nick.
