The Soundcraft Mini Stagebox 16 offers a simple and low cost solution for expanding the I/O capabilities of any of the Vi or Si range of consoles, whether that I/O is needed locally or hundreds of meters away on the stage. The Mini Stagebox 16 requires only 2U of rack space, yet provides 16 recallable mic/line inputs and 8 balanced line outputs for a total I/O capacity of 16 inputs and 8 outputs, all lifted directly from the Vi1 and the larger Compact Stagebox.

The Mini Stagebox 16 comes fitted with a single-cable Cat 5 MADI HD interface for connection to the host console using an approved Cat 5 cable (not included). If required, this MADI HD interface card can be upgraded (sold separately) to either redundant (dual-cable) Cat 5 or redundant (dual-fibre) optical fiber with the compatible MADI HD interface card.
