Overview

The Soundcraft Ui16 is a 16-input digital mixer built for flexibility, fitting neatly into a standard equipment rack while offering full wireless control from virtually any device. Compatible with iOS, Android, Windows, Mac OS, and Linux, the Ui16 lets up to ten tablets, phones, or computers connect simultaneously — making it ideal for live settings where performers want to control their own monitor mixes or for installations where the mixer needs to be tucked away out of sight. With independent Wi-Fi and Ethernet interfaces built in, you can run wireless and wired control simultaneously for added reliability.

Audio quality is bolstered by an impressive suite of onboard processing drawn from Harman's professional brands. Three dedicated Lexicon FX busses handle reverb, delay, and chorus, while dbx AFS2 automatic feedback suppression and DigiTech amp modeling are available across channels. Every output features a 31-band graphic EQ, noise gate, and compressor, along with a real-time frequency analyzer on both inputs and outputs. The input complement covers a wide range of sources with eight XLR combo mic/line jacks, four dedicated XLR mic inputs, two instrument channels, and a stereo RCA line input. A built-in 2-channel USB media player supports MP3, WAV, and AIFF playback, and 2-channel USB recording lets you capture performances directly to a connected storage device.
