1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION 
The 
SONOSAX SX-ST
 and 
SX-VT
 Series is a line of extremely compact, portable, self-contained mixing 
consoles, designed for professional mobile and studio applications. 
 
Built in a strong, rugged and anodised aluminium chassis, the 
SONOSAX SX-ST
 and 
SX-VT
 Series provide the 
best solution whenever top performances, reduced size and low consumption are important. 
Due to its versatility, the 
SONOSAX SX-ST
 and 
SX-VT
  are the ideal mixing consoles for numerous applications, 
such as: 
 
• 
video, television and cinema production and post-production 
• 
fixed and mobile recording studio and broadcast 
• 
OB Van 
• 
digital or analogue sound recording 
• 
very high quality sound systems for concert halls, theaters, etc. 
 
The 
SONOSAX SX-ST 
and 
SX-VT
 have been created taking into consideration the possibility of working with 
digital sound recording, as well as synchronization and automation with other existing or future equipments. 
 
1.1 
SONOSAX SX-ST
 series 
Battery or DC powered, the 
SX-ST
 series are available with configurations of up to 10 inputs modules. The 
Master & Monitoring module provides with 8 Master outputs, 4 Auxiliaries, 3 independent Monitoring selectors, 
two independent Private Line for communication  
Two frame sizes for the 
SX-ST
 series are available: 
 
SX-ST8D
, for up to 8 input modules with space provided for optional Digital or Recorder module 
SX-ST10
, for up to 10 input modules, or up to 9 inputs and one Digital or Recorder module 
 
The 
SX-ST
 series being fully modular you can purchase with a few number of modules and add more modules 
or options at a later date. 
1.2 
SONOSAX SX-VT
 series 
The 
SX-VT
 series uses the same technologies as the 
SX-ST
 series but is available with configurations from 12 to 
48 inputs. Thus, the technology and the modules are similar, the battery pack have been removed
 
as the
 SX-VT
 
series can only be DC powered from its external main to DC adapter or from a suitable DC power source such 
as a large battery bank.  
The supplied AC to DC adapter has a voltage range from 100 to 260V AC, 47Hz to 64Hz  allowing the use of 
the console worldwide without any modification. For OB-Van applications, we can provide a special power 
supply to power the mixer from the 12V or 24 V vehicle battery bank. 
The 
SX-VT
 series comes with the same Master & Monitoring module as the 
SX-VT
Each 
SONOSAX SX-VT
 mixing console is composed of standard modules combined and assembled according 
to the needs and desires of the user. In this way, it is adapted as closely as possible to the required 
specifications and at the same time, remains expandable. 
1.2.1  VCA and Compressor options 
As an option, the 
SX-VT
 series can be equipped with VCA's (voltage controlled amplifier) input modules with 
Compressor and optional VCA grouping.  
A DB25 computer type connector allows control of the VCA with an external DC voltage source (for example a 
video editor or an automation system) thus allowing external level control for each input.  
The compressor is of a very particular type and does not have the “pumping” effect so often found with this kind 
of circuitry. The user is therefore assured at all times, particularly when working with digital systems, that there 
will be no saturation that could lead to catastrophic effects. 
 
NOTE: When used with external controllers, faders must be positioned at 0 dB. 
Due to power consumption of VCA's, these options are not available on the 
SX-ST
 series
