Mix large shows like a boss with the Signature Plus 32, an analog mixer that gives you the EQs, compression, effects, and busses you need to succeed.

Overview

The Soundcraft Signature Plus 32 is a console in the Signature Plus Series. It features 32 input channels and delivers professional workflows and flagship features at a competitive price. As an evolution of the acclaimed Soundcraft Signature Series, Signature Plus models integrate professional audio performance with a clear layout, including color-coded and tactile knobs for fast adjustments.

Premium creative audio quality comes from Ghost mic preamps, Sapphyre EQ, dbx one-knob compressor, and a Lexicon hardware effects processor with Store and Tap Tempo. Pro flexibility features include SSM (Simple Success Metering), Listen bus and "Talkback To", Mix to Auxes, 4x4 USB-C 192kHz interface, and flexible monitoring controls. Rugged construction and a surface-mounted QR code, linking to training videos, manuals, and support resources, ensure Signature Plus models are ready for any environment.

The Signature Plus 32 isn't just another analog mixing console -- it's a professional-grade creative hub that empowers artists, engineers, and creators to deliver exceptional sound in studios, on stage, and across streaming platforms.

Intuitive, Professional Control

Signature Plus features a clean, purpose-driven layout that optimizes input and output sections for fast, confident navigation. Color-coded buttons and tactile "squircle" knobs make adjustments quick and precise -- even in low-light or high-pressure environments.

Creative Analog Character

Soundcraft Ghost mic preamps… read more deliver smooth overload behavior and rich harmonics, paired with Sapphyre EQ for musical tone shaping. Built-in dbx one-knob compressors with harmonic enhancement and insert points provide flexible sound shaping.

Exclusive Lexicon Hardware Effects

As the only console in its class with a built-in Lexicon hardware processor, Signature Plus 32 adds preset Store and Tap Tempo functions for expanded creative control.

Advanced Talkback To, Listening and Metering

A dedicated Listen bus allows engineers to monitor channels without interrupting the main mix, while Talkback To routing ensures clear communication where and when needed. Extensive SSM (Simple Success Metering) provides fast visual feedback across all inputs and outputs.

USB-C Connectivity for Modern Workflows

A 4x4 USB-C 192kHz interface enables seamless playback and recording with laptops or mobile devices. USB inputs can be routed into channel strips or override the mix for break music and DJ sets. Additionally, single press select empowers direct headphone and control listening between sessions.

Simple, Flexible Monitoring

User-configurable monitoring controls include independent headphone/control room outs, with Mute / Dim / Mono Sum, and user selection from Auxes, Listen, Mix, or direct USB returns for streamlined monitoring precision per listener.
