Soundcraft EPM 6 – Compact Analog Mixer for Professionals

The Soundcraft EPM 6 is a compact yet professional analog mixer designed for musicians, engineers, and live performers who value superior sound quality and intuitive control. With its clean layout, precision controls, and signature Soundcraft sound, the EPM 6 delivers professional-grade performance in a portable format.

Product Features

The EPM series focuses on pure sound quality, reliability, and ease of use. The EPM 6 offers six mono channels with XLR microphone and ¼” line inputs, plus two stereo channels – providing a total of eight inputs. Each mono channel includes an insert point for integrating external effects processors or dynamics units.

Mono channels feature a precise 3-band EQ with a sweepable midrange, while stereo channels have a 2-band EQ. This allows the user to fine-tune their tone with exceptional control and accuracy.

Modern Technology and Precise Control

At the heart of the EPM 6 are GB30 microphone preamps, designed by Soundcraft co-founder Graham Blyth. These preamps deliver up to 55 dB of gain and a remarkable +22 dB of headroom, ensuring low noise and wide dynamic range. The same design is found in larger Soundcraft consoles such as the LX7ii and GB series.

Surface-mount technology (SMT) and high-precision components guarantee consistent performance, long-term reliability, and repeatable settings. The mixer also provides a global +48 V phantom power supply for all condenser microphones.

Applications

The Soundcraft EPM 6 is perfect for a wide range of applications – from live gigs, rehearsals, and studio recording to permanent installations in schools, churches, and conference rooms. Its transparent sound and sturdy build make it a versatile choice for professionals who need a reliable and flexible mixing solution.
