That console looks great. Projects like this are good fun. Will it be in use?

A few years back I helped refurbish an enormous Tascam Desk for use in a recording studio. That old analog board was loved by its owner and sure sounded sweet once we got done.

I am running digital boards for the most part now because of the weight and size. One 30 pound console replaces a 50 pound analog console and 50 pound effects rack. These boards are far from junk. I am often able to make repairs on the professional digital equipment.

I do miss the feel of the old consoles, but I now can wander around the venue with an iPad and mix live music from the house.
