Flexible Routing Options
Each of the SMC 7.1’s two balanced 7.1 inputs and two balanced stereo inputs can be routed directly to the balanced 7.1 output simultaneously.
Additionally, stereo signals of the active input can also be routed direct to the stereo output for an entirely separate mix.
Built-In Headphone Amp
The SMC 7.1’s high quality built-in headphone amplifier circuit enables quality listening via headphones as well as surround studio monitors.
Single channels can be routed from the 7.1 mix direct to the headphone output, or alternatively a stereo-mix from the active input can also be routed the same way.
Meticulous Design
The front-end control surface of the SMC 7.1 is optimised for ergonomic efficiency, featuring 8-ganged potentiometer controls and a well thought-out layout for ease of operation including rapid adjustments.
The SMC 7.1 is designed to stand up to even the most demanding 7.1 surround sound mixing scenarios, providing outstanding dynamic range, high quality analogue circuitry and an impressive frequency response of up to 100 kHz.
