ore than 25 years' experience of professional
mixing console design has given Soundcraft an unmatched knowledge of the field. Over the years, a series of now legendary consoles, such as Series Four and Europa, have earned Soundcraft worldwide respect for audio performance and unique British sound.
Then came Series FIVE, Soundcraft's finest front-of-house console yet. Since its release, Series FIVE has been adopted as an industry standard by touring companies, installations and theatres alike. Its first year of production saw Series FIVE in use around the world at countless high profile performances ­with artists such as Texas, Del Amitri and Garbage enjoying its flexibility and outstanding sound quality.
FIVE Monitor is a dedicated monitor console to partner Series FIVE. Light and compact, yet strong and reliable, FIVE Monitor is designed to be highly flexible while retaining the famous Soundcraft familiarity.
Central to the design of FIVE Monitor is a fully configurable stereo bus structure. Given the complexity of today’s shows and concerts, more and more musicians are demanding in-ear monitoring systems, which are now more reliable than ever before. FIVE Monitor's highly flexible mono or stereo bus structure ensures that you can always meet the requirements of your performers.
An extensive range of other fully professional features includes a choice of two bus structures, a dedicated interface for the popular BSS Varicurve™ FPC-900 remote control, a selection of input and output modules, and a comprehensive output matrix.
FIVE Monitor is the perfect companion for existing Soundcraft front-of-house users, and newcomers to Soundcraft alike.

FLEXIBLE FRAME AND BUS STRUCTURE OPTIONS
To allow you to match your console as closely as possible to the complexity of your application, the FIVE Monitor is available in a choice of two bus structures: 24-bus and 32-bus. The 24­bus version is available with 44, 52 or 60 input channels, while the 32-bus version offers 40, 48 and 56 channel frame sizes.
BSS VARICURVE™ REMOTE CONTROLLER
Unique to Soundcraft consoles is the integrated MIDI control of the BSS FPC­900 Varicurve™ Remote unit. When the FPC-900 is inserted into the FIVE Monitor's MIDI loop, soloing any output channel will cause the FPC-900 to display
all external EQ settings associated
with that output.* Any individual
parameter can then be
