The legendary British sound
From humble beginnings in London more than 40 years ago and still designed and engineered in the UK, Soundcraft defined the term ‘British sound’ in live sound mixing consoles. Acclaimed Ghost mic preamps and our Sapphyre ‘British’ equaliser ensure the Signature range carries the Soundcraft signature sound today.
