Now there's a really easy way to achieve great live sound thanks to GigRac, Soundcraft's new integrated mixer/amplifier. Solo performers and small bands alike will appreciate not only GigRac's cool, stylish looks, but also its portability and the ease with which microphones, instruments and loudspeakers can be quickly connected to deliver a punchy performance every time. GigRac benefits from Soundcraft's 30 years of designing and building live sound mixing consoles for many of the world's top tours and festivals, so musicians can be guaranteed that the product's sound quality is absolutely top-notch. Setting up a PA with GigRac is remarkably simple; only speakers and cables are required to complete the system. Everything one needs is provided, including high-quality mic preamps to make vocals clear and effective, a two-band EQ on each channel to cope with demanding sources, a seven-band master graphic EQ designed by pro audio industry leader BSS Audio, and a selection of preset digital effects designed to deliver major stage presence--and all this in an aesthetically stunning package that can be ergonomically carried over a shoulder. The GR 300 has integrated 300-watt power amp which will easily drive a pair of main speakers and features eight input channels, with channels number five through eight being for either mono or stereo sources. With GigRac, transporting gear to a show is much easier than carrying an armful of mixers amplifiers and equalizers. Matched to either EON 1500 or Soundfactor speakers from Soundcraft's sister company, JBL, a great sounding and powerful PA solution is easy to achieve. The lid of GigRac's road-ready case is intelligently designed to stow microphones and cables so that everything is easily transportable and kept safe. For fixed installations, GigRac can be simply removed from its case as a single unit and rack-mounted, taking up just 4U of rack space. GigRac is the ideal mixer/amp combo for solo performers, duos, small bands, public speakers, schools, churches, AV presentations, fitness studios and a myriad of other applications.
