Soundcraft Si Performer 3 - 32-Channel Digital Mixing Console with 8 Line Inputs and 1 DMX Universe in Black Finish

The Soundcraft Si Performer 3 is a groundbreaking 32-channel digital mixing console that uniquely combines professional audio mixing with integrated lighting control. Offering 32 recallable mic preamps, 8 stereo line inputs, and a dedicated DMX 512 interface, the Si Performer 3 is designed to handle both audio and lighting needs in one streamlined unit. Ideal for venues such as theaters, schools, churches, and live performance spaces, this console provides an all-in-one solution for those looking to minimize gear while maximizing functionality. With powerful DSP processing, FaderGlow visual feedback, and ViSi Connect expansion slots, the Si Performer 3 stands as a robust, feature-rich console for a variety of applications.

At its core, the Si Performer 3 delivers exceptional audio mixing power. It features 32 local recallable mic preamps and 8 stereo line inputs, giving you comprehensive control over a wide range of audio sources. Additionally, the console supports 64 mono inputs for up to 80 input channels when expanded with Soundcraft stageboxes. Each input channel benefits from full dynamic processing, including a high-pass filter, input delay, gate, compressor, and 4-band parametric EQ. The console also integrates 8 VCA groups and 8 mute groups, allowing for intuitive group control, while the color backlit name displays and FaderGlow make it easy to stay organized, even during complex live performances.

The Si Performer 3 takes versatility to the next level with its built-in DMX 512 controller. This feature enables users to control lighting directly from the mixing console, eliminating the need for a separate lighting control system. For schools, churches, or small touring productions, this integration reduces setup complexity and makes the console a central hub for managing both audio and lighting with precision. The motorized faders and lighting control capabilities work seamlessly with the console's automation system, offering flexible and programmable control over your stage lighting.

Complementing its comprehensive input capabilities, the Si Performer 3 also offers extensive output options. The console is equipped with 16 XLR analogue line outputs, four dedicated Lexicon FX engine busses, and LCR (Left, Center, Right) busses. Each bus is equipped with a compressor, 4-band fully parametric EQ, BSS graphic EQ, and delay. This ensures you have all the tools necessary for complete control of your audio signal. With the ability to configure 14 aux/group mixes as either 14 mono or 8 mono plus 6 stereo mixes, the Si Performer 3 gives you maximum flexibility for monitor mixes, effects sends, or additional outputs.

The built-in Lexicon FX engines provide studio-quality reverb, delay, modulation, and pitch effects, ensuring your audio sounds polished and professional. The hardware-based processing ensures that these effects do not tax the console's overall performance, leaving all dynamics, parametric EQs, and graphic EQs available at all times. Tap-tempo controls and 29 effect presets give you fine control over each effect, making the Si Performer 3 perfect for both live sound and studio recording environments.

Expanding your Si Performer 3's capabilities is simple, thanks to its two ViSi Connect expansion slots. These slots offer up to 128 input and 96 output paths, enabling connection to a range of digital I/O options such as MADI, Dante, BLU Link, and more. This flexibility allows you to integrate the console into a larger system, interface with multi-track recording setups, or add additional stageboxes to extend the number of inputs. Additionally, the console is compatible with Soundcraft's ViSi Remote iPad app, enabling remote control from anywhere in the venue for monitor mixing or FOH adjustments.

With Soundcraft's legendary audio quality, courtesy of its EMMA DSP processors, the Si Performer 3 is built to handle the demands of professional live sound. Its durable construction, intuitive user interface, and powerful processing make it a leader in its class, while its integrated lighting control adds a unique and invaluable feature. Whether you are running a live concert, theatrical production, or conference, the Si Performer 3 provides all the tools necessary to deliver an outstanding performance.
