Soundcraft GB8 48-Channel Live Mixing Console
The Soundcraft GB8 48-Channel Live Mixing Console is engineered to deliver professional audio performance for front-of-house (FOH) and monitor mixing in venues of all sizes. Designed for live sound reinforcement, touring, houses of worship, theaters, and installed sound applications, the GB8 combines premium microphone preamplifiers, flexible routing, and comprehensive mixing capabilities in a robust console built for demanding environments.
This configuration features 48 mono input channels with microphone and line-level connectivity, complemented by four stereo input channels that support both stereo line sources and XLR microphone inputs. The stereo channels are ideal for keyboards, playback devices, stereo microphones, ambient recording, and other stereo audio sources. Eight subgroup outputs provide flexible routing to external recorders, monitor systems, broadcast feeds, and additional audio processing equipment.
The console incorporates Soundcraft’s renowned GB30 microphone preamplifiers, delivering low-noise operation, high gain performance, and detailed audio reproduction across a wide frequency range. A four-band equalizer with swept high-mid and low-mid controls enables precise tonal shaping, while eight auxiliary sends and four stereo returns support monitor mixes and external effects processors. Direct outputs on every mono channel simplify multitrack recording and system integration.
An integrated matrix mixer adds advanced routing flexibility for multiple speaker zones and independent audio feeds, while the built-in LED and VU meter bridge provides accurate monitoring of input and output signal levels. Featuring internal universal power supply operation, individual +48V phantom power switching, long-throw 100 mm faders, and comprehensive professional connectivity, the Soundcraft GB8 offers the performance, reliability, and control required for complex live sound productions.
