Does this 4000€ mixer from 1983 sound good? Deep house jam with Deluge and 80-90’s racks
After putting it to some use I think it sounds quite good, the EQ is definitely usable for basic sculpting of synth sounds, especially the 45Hz low shelf works well on bass and kicks, though I wish the mid eq went a little bit lower for cutting midrange mud. Also relatively thin an compact for an 8-bus 18 channel mixer from of that era.
Plus, a nice looking console lends as certain cachet to any studio, right? Right. 😉
Also making good use of the Tauntek firmware for Akai VX90/AX73: www.tauntek.com/AX73.htm
