Only 115 cm wide - scope of functions identical with Vi3000
96 channels, 24 stereo busses (plus LCR/Solo), max. 244 inputs and 244 outputs
Integrated mic/line inputs and line outs (optional 48/16, 32/32, 16/48, 16/16)
Integrated MADI, AES/EBU and Dante interfaces, 2 additional D21m dual card slots (e.g. for 2 stageboxes)
Operating concept, showfiles, stageboxes, card options and plug-ins identical/compatible with all Vi consoles
The Soundcraft Vi2000 is a powerful, very compact digital mixing console with integrated DSP and inputs/outputs. At just over 1 m wide, the user has 28 faders and 3 Vistonics touchscreens at his disposal.
The "inner workings" of the Soundcraft Vi2000 are completely identical to those of the Soundcraft Vi3000. An optimally tuned mix of FPGA and SHARC processing technology enables routing and DSP capabilities unprecedented for this size and price range. Studer 40 bit floating point, Lexicon effects units, BSS DPR901 Dynamic EQs, BSS FCS960 graphic EQs - all familiar buzzwords that have helped define the status of the Soundcraft Vi series.
Thanks to Spider Core, the Soundcraft Vi2000 offers 96 mixer channels, 24 mono or stereo busses (auxes, groups or matrix). Another 10 permanently configured buses are available for the LCR summing and solo rails. 128 additional tie lines (point-to-point connections) complete the signal routing. The Spider Core provides an impressive total pool of 246 inputs and/or outputs for patching to the channels, buses and tie lines.
These inputs and outputs are distributed as follows: A maximum of 4 plug-in units with 16 XLR connectors each on the rear panel: this allows for analog 48/16, 32/32 or 16/48 configurations, for example. In addition, the Soundcraft V2000 has integrated Dante, MADI and AES interfaces as well as 2 optionally equipable D21m dual card slots. These can be used to retrofit almost all I/O formats available on the market (4x single card, 2x double card). Furthermore, these slots can also be used to connect 2 stageboxes via MADI (fiber or RJ45/Cat).
Like all Soundcraft digital mixing consoles, the Soundcraft Vi2000 can be complemented with all Soundcraft Studer stageboxes. Existing show files from other Vi consoles can be loaded into the Vi2000 and vice versa. Channel and bus processing, extensive scene automation, monitoring and talkback options, gang function, copy & paste - everything is identical to the existing Vi consoles. The Soundcraft Realtime Racks (Universal Audio Plug-Ins) and the ViSi Remote App are also supported by the Soundcraft Vi2000.
