10 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY SCHEME

The product price includes 3 years' warranty and 30 day money back guarantee.

However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.

The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:

  • Warranty is extended to 10 years from the date of delivery.
  • Our Money Back guarantee is extended from 30 days to 180 days (terms apply after 30 days)
  • Collection and delivery costs are included for the first 2 years in the event of an item becoming faulty
  • Claim 50% cash back on the cost of the policy after 10 years if it has not been used!
  • Warranty is transferable if the item is re-sold
  • Loan or replacement equipment will be provided if the product isn't repaired within 30 days
  • If an item can not be repaired, a similar alternative product or cash discount (as defined in this policy) will be offered
  • The policy can be cancelled within 30 days, and at any time after that for a pro-rata discount

Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.

For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.

This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

Brimming with convenient features

TOTEM™, ViSi Connect™, BSS® GEQ, D.O.G.S - there's an acronym for every audio need on board the Si Expression 2. The TOTEM™ system is 'The One Touch Easy Mix', this lets you use a single key to instantly reconfigure an AUX, FX, or Matrix bus at the push of a button.

BSS GEQ provides a graphic EQ processor for every single bus. There isn't a shared pool of processors so you'll never run out of EQ processing power on your buses. An integrated Direct Out Gain Stabiliser (DOGS) prevents manual alterations to mic gain affecting direct out levels. This is ideal if two mixers share a stagebox for example.

Lexicon® Digital Effects

Lexicon® studio-quality effects allow you to effortlessly achieve professional-quality sound without additional plug-ins or outboard equipment. Industry-standard signal processing technology within the DSP engine ensures reliable operation while reverb, chorus, delay effects with tap tempo, and many more allow you to enhance your performance. The mixer includes four stereo effects engines - the creative possibilities are astounding.

Instant access for easy usability

Included on the mixer are a set of easy access keys. These make navigating your live sound life easier than ever. Leave context menu diving behind, with easy store, recall, mute, selection, and tap tempo buttons. Copy and paste keys also mean you can copy the settings from an entire channel, bus, mix, or effects processor.

Features

  • FaderGlow™ dynamically colour codes your faders
  • The One Touch Easy Mix (TOTEM) lets you mix buses at the push of a button
  • Massive variety of routing options - route one input to several channels
  • Four industry standard Lexicon DSP chips for huge creative possibilities
  • Direct Out Gain Stabiliser (DOGS) prevents manual change of a mic gain control affecting direct out levels
