I know, I know. I'm almost embarrassed by it. A bit like someone on those tv programmes about hoarders.

All I can say is,... there used to be a 32 channel console in there too, before I downsized. :WTF:

I do like it. Still getting used to a reduced number of channels but it works well and connects to the ADAT with optical cables, lessening the wiring count.
One thing I miss is the subgroups (it doesn't have any) as I am used to having 8.

I haven't managed to get the Firewire to work yet. I think it's a computer problem but to be honest , I didn't really buy it for that as I'm a hardware user and never got on with the computer for music.

It's very compact. Maybe even a little cramped, and the faders are only 60mm but that's what you want in a small environment like this. The 32 channel console I had before really took over the space.

@Pilchard,
Don't get rid of anything. It will all go up in value in time. Someone will want or need something desperately one day soon and you will be able to say "$5000".
Save your gear for a nice retirement.
Peace

Here's a shot of the new mixing console.

Cool. :smoker:

The Zed R16 would be the next logical upgrade for me if I stick with the interface/mixer combo. The ADAT connections would be a bonus, as would being able to route audio back into the mixer from Cubase for basic summing.

I don't know how reliable they are though? The negative stuff tends to be the first things that appear when you search around forums, but I've noticed a number of people with issues.

Lol,.. well spotted!
It's an MMT-8 But like I said before I never get rid of anything unless it's vexing me in some way :mrgreen:
