OVERALL OPINION

Cooper Sound CS 208 D, a console making its versatile portable (8.6 kg) solid, reliable, friendly, ergonomic and easy to use very well finished.
Electronic components flawless waterproof sealed packaged easily accessible.
Listening right and amplifications without noise, a noise inaudible. the lowest signal to noise of all the current consoles (EIN -131.2 dB A wt d)
I will draw attention to all the little things that make life easier, six analog bus, four main outputs, two auxiliary digital outputs four AES (4 channels 24bit 96kHz), not to mention a parallel output before or after each of the fader 8 channels, including a stereo, three monitoring matrixage to separate supports all SMPTE clocks known, Aaton, AES, etc ...
The assignment of the routing of voice is simple, visual, fast, with the possibility of each phase if necessary, low-cut filter efficient and discreet supply of a powerful equalizer if needed.

Forget the slice Stereo, MS or AB to choose from, a shipment of a private assistant to a particular listening to the director and another for customers, each being individually configurable.
Two remotes start recorders are completed by all.
External power is provided between 12 and 25 Volts and it works internally on 8 LR12 batteries (D cells)
All this high-end electronics is analog (except the A / D converter), with isolation transformers Jensen very judices placed, the whole giving a listening experience that delights the ears, the pinnacle for me to record independently.
