The Looptrotter Project Console 32 is a fully modular 500-series mixing console designed for studios that demand flexibility, customisation and uncompromising analogue workflow.

Channel Module

Each channel provides eight switchable inputs with two operational modes: MIC for recording and DAW for mixing. It accepts eight mic/line inputs and eight DAW inputs via DB-25 connectors. Two dedicated 500-series slots per channel allow engineers to install any preamplifier, equaliser or dynamics processor, each with a true bypass option. A balanced insert connection per channel enables additional external processing, while a direct-to-tape output ensures seamless routing to recording devices. The channel section includes pan control, mute and solo functions, a 0dB fader bypass switch, and a 100mm Alps fader for precise level adjustments.

Master Module

The master section provides 24 summing channels, configured as 16 stereo and 8 mono inputs through DB-25 connectors. Its proprietary summing circuit combines current and voltage summing for wide headroom and sonic depth. A 100mm Alps master fader governs the main stereo bus, enhanced with Looptrotter’s MAGIC harmonic circuit for added colour and presence. A stereo 500-series slot sits on the summing bus for flexible processing, complemented by a balanced insert point. The monitoring system offers three selectable monitor outputs (A, B, C) and four input sources (External, DAW, L-R, Solo), each with independent level control. Engineers benefit from an adjustable external input, solo bus with level trim, large monitor volume knob, mono compatibility check, headphone output with volume control, and a high-visibility 24-segment LED meter.

Connectivity and Build

The rear panel hosts balanced XLR outputs for monitor feeds, DB-25 connections for main outputs, inserts, DAW inputs, stereo and mono channels, mic/line inputs, and direct tape outputs. With handcrafted PCB design, a 100% analogue signal path, and an integrated hybrid power supply, the Project Console 32 combines modern reliability with classic analogue workflow.
