Soundcraft Urei 1601 Series — buyer FAQs
What is the Soundcraft Urei 1601 Series and who is it designed for?
The Soundcraft Urei 1601 Series is a range of purpose-built digital mixers designed specifically for scratch DJs and turntablists. All models in the range share a core feature set including two stereo channels with phono and line inputs, three-band EQ, an 80Hz high-pass filter to remove turntable rumble, user-replaceable 45mm crossfaders and line faders with reverse and rotary curve control, and dedicated Booth and House outputs.
What are the differences between the 1601S and 1601E models?
The base 1601 Series specification is shared across all variants, but two models add distinct sections. The 1601S includes a sampler: a two-bank, 32-beat facility running at 24-bit/96kHz with loop, one-shot and reverse playback modes and a footswitch option. The 1601E instead adds an effects section with five preset effects including flange, cutter, filter, delay and pan, plus five banks of five effects.
Who makes the Urei 1601 Series and where does it sit in the Soundcraft range?
Soundcraft is a British professional audio brand founded in 1973, known for analogue and digital mixing consoles across live sound, broadcast and installation. Since 1988 it has been part of Harman International. The Urei 1601 Series represents a specialist departure from Soundcraft's broader console range, targeting the scratch DJ and turntablist market with a dedicated feature set rather than general live or broadcast mixing.
What inputs and outputs does the Urei 1601 Series provide?
Each mixer in the range offers two stereo channels accepting both phono and line level signals, a separate mic/line input with a dedicated insert point and two-band EQ, and a session in and out facility for daisy-chaining multiple units. Outputs include balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA phono connectors for both Booth and House, a flexible headphone monitoring section, and a send-and-return FX loop.
What should I check when buying a used Soundcraft Urei 1601 Series mixer?
Confirm which variant you are buying, as the 1601S and 1601E differ significantly in their additional sections. Check that the user-replaceable 45mm crossfaders and 25mm monitor crossfader are in good working order, and verify the phono inputs, output protection limiter and metering all function correctly. Used condition and included accessories affect price; see the live listings on this page.
