32 channels inline console (32 channels + 32 returns tape)
4-band EQ, the mids are semi-parametric
No fader bus damage
UTILIZATION
All good except the bus.
SOUNDS
The EQ is clearly the strength of the console.
OVERALL OPINION
I used to mix (some over dubs too) for about four weeks.
I liked the EQ, and compact size. One little push far enough without EQ it sounds unnatural.
on the other hand, construction seriously flawed. There was, on the model I used, micro-cracks on the tape returns. It's very annoying. I had my returns over effects, and you had to be very careful that there downmix signal on all channels. I had a little press it to make it back. The preamps do not sound very honest (much worse than my API ...).
With this handicap buses missing, I could not find the console that well. Faders spit (now?) And knobs-level monitoring + headphones too.
The console had a good ten years, but that is no excuse.
