Soundcraft RW5786HU ViSB 64:32 C5 - Vi Stage-box 64:32 Cat5

The Soundcraft Vi Stage-box is a compact yet powerful mixing hub engineered for studio-to-stage workflows and permanent recording installations where remote I/O control and flexible channel count are essential. Its 9U form factor houses professional-grade analog I/O with straightforward Cat5 connectivity, making it an efficient signal distribution centerpiece for mid-to-large format recording and live mixing rigs.

I/O Architecture & Connectivity

This stage-box delivers 64 mic/line inputs and 32 analogue line outputs, providing substantial routing flexibility for multi-track recording sessions, complex mixing scenarios, and parallel processing chains. The Cat5 connectivity enables remote operation from a Vi console positioned in the control room, eliminating the need for bulky multicore cables while maintaining signal integrity across studio or venue distances.

Remote Control & Audio Processing

All critical input parameters—mic/line amp gain, 48V phantom power, and 100 Hz lo-cut filter—are remotely adjustable from the mixing console, streamlining session workflow and enabling precise gain staging without stage-side intervention. Optional AES/EBU, CobraNet, Ethersound, Aviom A-Net 16, Blu Link, or Dante expansion cards extend digital connectivity for networked recording systems and larger DAW integrations, while transformer-balanced mic input options provide enhanced noise rejection in electrically challenging studio environments.
