12 Channel Analog Mixer
The Soundcraft Spirit Folio is aimed at the market for ultra-compact, high-quality mixers suitable for both sound-reinforcement and recording applications. It offers advanced features not often found in smaller format mixers, such as sweepable EQ, and a full complement of faders rather than rotary level knobs. The first eight channels are all full-featured, with both mic and line connections. The console is kept small by including a pair of stereo channels (9-10 and 11-12) for stereo inputs at line level. Globally switched 48V DC phantom powering is available for condenser mics and active DI boxes.
Soundcraft is legendary for their superior EQ circuitry and they pack a lot into this small footprint. The channel EQ has a switchable 100Hz high-pass filter stage which is great to reduce rumble or unwanted low frequencies, a 3-band, sweep-mid EQ. This offers +/-15dB shelving response at 60Hz/12kHz, with the mid center frequency variable over a range of 250Hz to 6Hz. On the stereo channels the EQ is a 2-band, fixed-frequency, shelving configuration, operating at 60Hz and 8kHz.
There are two auxiliary sends per channel (you can use the channels as returns), configured as one fixed post-fade and one globally switchable pre/post. Channel facilities are completed by a 60mm fader, a major plus point in comparison with most other smaller format mixers. Dual inputs for Tape Returns with a separate volume control allow you to play music without using up two of your channels.
All channels feature a non-latching PFL switch and a 1kHz test oscillator. Insert points are featured on the main outputs for adding global EQ, compression, or other thru-processing.
The Folio is clean and quiet with minimal crosstalk. Complete with a built-in carry handle this mixer is ready to go wherever you need it. Made in England.
