About the Soundcraft Ui12

Buck Pomerantz

Compact digital mixer for a band or club

Soundcraft's Ui12 mixer will help you balance your music and color it with all the sonic special effects you like. You set the mixer up like a stage box, connecting microphones and other audio sources to the inputs and powered speakers or amps to the outputs. Then, you use your own device (smartphone, tablet, or PC) to wirelessly control the mix from wherever you choose to sit or stand.

Compact digital mixer for a band or club

Soundcraft's Ui12 mixer will help you balance your music and color it with all the sonic special effects you like. You set the mixer up like a stage box, connecting microphones and other audio sources to the inputs and powered speakers or amps to the outputs. Then, you use your own device (smartphone, tablet, or PC) to wirelessly control the mix from wherever you choose to sit or stand.

This surface-less digital mixer features onboard WiFi that can connect to any wireless device that has an up-to-date web browser. You don't have to download an app to run the mixer — it acts as its own hotspot/server that sends the app directly to your device via its wireless internet connection. Up to ten devices can control the mix at the same time, but you can limit the functionality of each to prevent someone from tweaking a wrong monitor channel, for example.

I/O features

The Ui12 features 8 microphone inputs, 4 of which can also accommodate TRS 1/4-inch plugs for line-level instruments like keyboards. You'll also find RCA and USB inputs for playing music on breaks or for background beats. The master outputs deliver the front-of-house sound to your amplifiers, while two auxiliary outputs take care of monitor mixes.

No need to lug around guitar amps

The first two channels feature high-impedance inputs that you can plug your guitars into directly. The Ui12's software includes DigiTech® Amp Modeling which creates the virtual amp and cabinet combination of your choice and allows you, for example, to sound like you're playing through a Marshall stack without any actual amp or cabinet set up onstage.

Signal processing by Harman

Soundcraft's parent company also happens to make some of the world's finest sound processors, so it's no wonder the Ui12 is packed with so many cool effects. For dynamic control, a dbx® compressor, de-esser, and noise gate can be applied to every channel. To add spatial effects, you can use the separate Lexicon® reverb, delay, and chorus echoes. With a 4-band parametric equalizer on each input, a 31-band graphic EQ on each output, plus a graphic RTA display with each EQ, you can craft individual instrument and room tones to perfection. And to top it off, a dbx AFS2 advanced feedback suppressor on each output automatically keeps the sound under control.

Features

Overview: The Soundcraft Ui12 is a 12-input digital mixer that can be controlled remotely by virtually any connected device through a standard web browser. With built-in Wi-Fi, or through an Ethernet connection, you can connect to the web server with your smartphone, tablet, or PC, and make all of the level adjustments, effects, and equalization. The mixer is designed to be used as a floor/stage unit, with inputs on the top and sides. The Ui12 comes with Ableton Live 9 Lite music production software (via download).

Mic/Line Inputs: The Ui12 features four XLR-1/4" combo mic/line inputs, as well as four XLR mic/line inputs. The first two inputs (channels 1 and 2) can be switched to Hi-Z inputs (high input impedance) for sources such as direct-input guitar pickups.

Remote Phantom Power: The Ui12 can supply +48V phantom power independently to each of the eight inputs. There are no physical buttons on the unit to turn Phantom Power on or off. You can turn on +48V phantom power remotely through the user interface's Gain section.

Line Inputs: In addition to the mic/line inputs, the Ui12 has a stereo RCA line input. These two inputs feed the Line In L and Line In R channels in the mixer.

USB Play: The built-in 2-channel USB Media Player can be used for backing tracks or for background music between sets. File playback is streamed directly from a USB stick. You cannot record to this USB port.

Master Outputs: The Soundcraft Ui12 is equipped with left and right Master Outputs with both XLR and 1/4" connectors. The Master Stereo Channel is the output channel for the main left and right mix.

Aux Outputs: In addition to the Master Outputs, the Ui12 offers a pair of balanced XLR Aux Outputs. Both Aux outputs have their own mix of input sources, separate from the master mix. Generally, Aux outputs are used for musicians to hear their own mix on stage via a stage monitor speaker or to headphone amplifiers for in-ear monitoring. You can also send the aux outputs to external hardware FX units.

Headphone Outputs: The Ui12 has two parallel 1/4" TRS stereo headphone outputs with a single volume control. The headphone outputs have a 500mW output when one output is used, and 380mW when both outputs used.

HARMAN Processing: This Soundcraft Ui-series mixer features built-in signal processing from other HARMAN companies, such as dbx, DigiTech, and Lexicon:

  • dbx AFS²: AFS² (Automatic Feedback Suppression 2) uses 12 intelligent filters to detect and eliminate feedback across the audio spectrum. It can be set up on the master stereo output, as well as the Aux bus master channels. There are two modes: Fixed and Live.
  • DigiTech Amp Modeling: DigiTech input processing and channel view is available on Inputs 1 and 2 when used for direct-input guitar pick-ups. DigiTech processing includes Amp Modeling which emulates different amps and cabinets.
  • Lexicon FX Processors: Digital effects are used to create color and depth in the audio mix. The Ui12 uses three internal Lexicon FX processors: Reverb, Delay, and Chorus.

EQs: Each of the 12 input channels features a 4-band Parametric EQ, with High-pass Filter, Compressor, De-esser, and Noise Gate. If desired, you can switch to a 3-band "Easy EQ" with fixed frequencies and fixed Q mode. In addition, all outputs have a 31-band graphic EQ, Noise Gate, and Compressor. The unit also includes a Real Time Analyser (RTA) on the input and output channels to show a spectral view of the incoming and outgoing signals.

Compatibility: The Ui12 digital mixer is compatible with iOS, Android, Windows, Mac OS, and Linux devices. Up to 10 devices can control the mixer simultaneously.

Wi-Fi: The Soundcraft Ui12 features integrated Wi-Fi, allowing you to control the mixer via multiple devices, including laptops, tablets, and smartphones. A built-in Wi-Fi antenna can be found on the top of the unit. You can choose either no security, or WPA2 password protection. If Wi-Fi isn't available, you can plug into the Ethernet port on the side of the unit and connect your control device to a wired LAN.
