24-channel rack-mount digital mixer with Studer-designed preamps, browser-based control from any device, and 24-track USB recording without a computer.
The Soundcraft Ui24R has carved out a unique space in the digital rack mixer market, primarily due to its 'browser-based' philosophy. By ditching proprietary apps in favor of a responsive HTML5 interface, Soundcraft ensures cross-platform longevity and ease of use that few competitors can match. You can mix from a tablet, phone, or laptop without worrying about OS compatibility issues.
Sonically, this unit punches well above its weight. The 20 Studer-designed preamps provide a clean, musical foundation with a remarkably low noise floor, while the integration of Lexicon effects and dbx dynamics processing gives you a professional-grade toolkit right out of the box. The inclusion of Digitech amp modeling on the first two channels is a thoughtful addition for guitarists looking to streamline their signal chain. Furthermore, the dual-path multi-track recording is a standout feature, allowing you to capture 22 tracks directly to a USB drive and your DAW simultaneously"an invaluable safety net for live engineers.
However, the internal 2.4GHz Wi-Fi is the mixer's Achilles' heel; it is notorious for dropouts in RF-heavy venues. For professional use, connecting an external 5GHz router is essentially mandatory. For touring bands and small venues seeking high-fidelity I/O in a compact footprint, the Ui24R is a powerhouse that balances heritage audio quality with modern convenience.
