1.0.2: SAPPHYRE EQ
SAPPHYRE EQ
Soundcraft Sapphyre Asymmetric EQ
The Soundcraft Signature console uses a special Asymmetric EQ first developed for the renowned
Soundcraft Sapphyre console. This EQ makes both creative and functional tonal shaping of your signal simple and intuitive - an EQ that works the way music does.
The shelving bands of the EQ (LF and HF) use a slight boost at the EQ’s frequency when cutting, and a slight cut when boosting.
For low frequencies, a slight cut when boosting prevents muddiness in he signal, while a slight boost when cutting enables you to clean up the low end without losing precious ‘punch’ and ‘body’ of the signal. For the HF shelf, a slight cut when boosting prevents harsh resonance at the EQ’s frequency, and a slight boost before a cut can help maintain brightness while reducing HF.
The mid-bands (bell-shape) have a wide bandwidth (low Q) when boosting, and a narrower bandwidth (high Q) when cutting.
The wide boost prevents prevent harsh resonances and tonal-changes that allow for a more pleasing and musical EQ boost. The Narrow cut focuses on problematic frequencies, for getting rid of resonances, rings, hums, and preventing feedback. If this was too wide you could remove too much ‘body’, creating a thin sound.

2.0: GETTING STARTED
GETTING STARTED - AN INTRODUCTION TO THIS MANUAL
Anyone with minimal audio experience should be able to operate the Soundcraft Signature console without reading too much of this manual, though we do recommend you take the time to go through it. An excellent place to start would be the feature list on the introductory page (section 1.0), which will familiarise you with all of the main possibilities, facilities, and functions.
Please note: Most of the illustrations in this manual are based on the Signature 22 console. Where there are differences between operation of Signature 16, 22, and 22MTK, it is noted in the relevant section.
If you’re reading the PDF version of the manual, you can use the thumbnail view and links from the Contents page to navigate quickly.
For clarity, this manual uses section references rather than page numbers. In some instances, one section reference may extend to several pages.
2.0: INTRODUCTION TO THIS MANUAL
16, 22, 22MTK User Manual
2.1: CONSOLE INTRO
GETTING STARTED > INTRODUCTION TO MIXING CONSOLES
The main function of a mixing console is to combine different audio inputs and independently adjust the levels of those contributions to the mix. With this very basic functionality you can control and balance any kind of audio from a one-man-band to an orchestra.
Most mixers however (including the Signature Series) offer far more than that. A variety of features allow the operator to shape the mix, and use routing options to provide the additional conveniences used in audio mixing applications, such as external effects sends, stage monitoring outputs, independent headphone monitoring, and digital inputs and outputs.
Mix Faders
Faders make it easy to see and adjust relative levels. They allow you to visualise the mix.
Input Choice
All different microphones and instruments are catered for with mic, line, and Hi-Z input types / selections, including 48V phantom power for powered (condenser / capacitor) microphones. The gain control allows you to optimise the input level.
Equalisation
Examples include the high pass filter on an input to reduce unwanted low frequencies, or the three-band EQ
(Equaliser) used for tonal ‘shaping’ of the source.
Dynamic Processing
This is audio processing that affects amplitude (volume). The Signature console includes a Limiter on selected channels, which will prevent the input signal going too high, which would in turn cause distortion.
Output options
As well as mixing all the input (source) channel into one Master Stereo output, you can send particular channels into additional group outputs, or create several different aux (auxiliary) mixes of all channels to send to an FX (Effects) processor or stage monitor, for example. The headphone output allows the operator to listen to the whole Main Mix, or to a selection of channels via the Solo System.
Solo / Monitor System
The solo system allows you to listen only to particular channels or busses through the headphones output, so you can focus on a particular source without changing the mix.
Internal FX
FX (Effects) processing such as reverb, delay, chorus, phasing, and so on can be incorporated into a mixing console so that you don’t have to invest in ‘outboard’ equipment or use up valuable physical inputs and outputs. The Signature’s Lexicon FX processing can be applied in a controlled manner by using the Auxiliary 3/FX mix and the dedicated stereo FX return channel.
Digital inputs and outputs.
Digital I/O is necessary to work with digital audio systems and computer-based Digital Audio Workstations. The Signature series uses a USB interface for either 2-channel input/output (main or Aux 1-2 output), or for multitrack input and output (MTK versions) with the USB inputs able to individually replace the input channel source for a flexible ‘tape return’ path. For example, the MTK functionality could use DAW plug-ins as insert processing on selected input channels, or you could do a sound check with a dry recording of the band from a previous gig... There are lots of ways to use this feature.
More Information
You can find out more about individual Signature features by reading the relevant section of this manual.

Inputs & Outputs
The Signature console features a variety of physical inputs and outputs for getting audio in and out of the console: XLR, Jack, and Phono for analogue audio I/O, and USB for digital audio. Refer to Section 3.0 for more detail, and to section 7.0 for detailed information on USB functionality. Note - USB functionality for MTK (Signature 22MTK) and non-MTK (Signature 16 and 22) are different; both types are detailed in section 7.0.
Mono Input Channels
Mono input channels control the levels, routing, and EQ on single channel audio inputs. All mono input channels have both microphone and line-level capability. In addition, specific channels feature Hi-Z inputs for high impedance sources such as guitar pick-ups. Refer to Sections 4.2 and 5.2 for more detail.
Stereo Input Channels
Signature 16, 22, and 22MTK consoles have two types of stereo inputs. One offers the option of a mono microphone/line level input by using either the XLR or Left/Mono Jack Input as well as stereo Jack inputs; the other (highest-numbered stereo channel) offers stereo line level phono inputs and is the ‘Playback
Channel’; the Master channel’s INTERVAL MUTE function mutes all channels except the Stereo playback channel. Refer to Sections 4.3 and 5.3 for more detail.
FX Return
A Signature FX Return channel takes it’s input from the output of the internal Lexicon FX processor. It is a stereo input channel with aux sends but without input level control or EQ. Refer to Sections 4.4 and 5.4 for more detail.

Aux Output Masters
Aux (Auxiliary) Master output channels control the output level of the auxiliary bus and global pre-fade/post-fader switching. AFL switching allows aux master solos. Refer to Sections 4.5 and 5.5 for more detail.
Group Output Masters
The Group Output Master channels control routing and output level for the Group busses. Groups 1 and 2, and 3 and 4 outputs can be summed to mono and/or routed to the Master Stereo Output. Refer to Sections 4.6 and 5.6 for more detail.
Master Stereo Output
Controls the output level of the Master Stereo bus. Includes the Interval Mute function (Mute all channels except the Stereo Playback Channel). Refer to Sections 4.7 and 5.7 for more detail.
Metering
The meters show the monitoring selection level - Master Left/Right output level in normal operation or the solo bus when a PFL or AFL is engaged. The AFL/PFL ACTIVE indicator is below the main meters and lights when any AFl or PFL selection is engaged. See section 6.0 for more detail.
