Well its not very often these come up - I think there are only 5 or 6 left in the world! So its no wonder this recent ebay auction ended early - probably some megastar bought it for their living room. The current bid was £14k with loads of bidders when it got pulled... and more info on this out there?<br />

EX ABBEY ROAD EMI REDD 17 STEREO-DUO-MONO MIXER
<br />
<br clear="left" />
Incredibly rare and sought after ex-abbey road valve mixing console.
<br />
<br clear="left" />
This mixer was used by abbey road in it's studios and for location recording from approx 1958 until it was originally sold at auction in 1980.
<br />
<br clear="left" />
The redd 17 was the first emi desk conforming to the modern concept of
a recording console.
<br />
<br clear="left" />
Emi's redd department (record engineering development department) made recording equipment exclusively for emi's own studios from approx 1955 until it was dissolved in the mid 60's.
<br />
<br clear="left" />
Full information on the very similar redd 37 & redd 51 mixers can be found in the book "recording the beatles".
<br />
<br clear="left" />
The main obvious differences between the redd 17 and the redd 37 / 51 desks are the number of group outputs and monitor sections, otherwise the
facilities are remarkably similar.
<br />
<br clear="left" />
All 3 types of redd mixer have the same number of basic input channels.
<br />
<br clear="left" />
Redd desks where custom made in very small numbers, although it isn't possible to say exactly how many where made.
<br />
<br clear="left" />
Paperwork exists with serial numbers for 6 redd 17's (this one is unfortunately missing it's serial number) and according to "recording the beatles" book other redd desks built for abbey road where = 3 redd 37's and 3 redd 51's and unless new information surfaces to say otherwise, that is probably all that where ever made.
<br />
<br clear="left" />
Approx 5 or 6 abbey road redd mixers are still known to exist, others are currently unaccounted for.
<br />
<br clear="left" />
At this point in time it is highly unlikely another redd mixer will surface or that one of the others still known to exist will be offered up for sale.
<br />
<br clear="left" />
The desk is in fair cosmetic condition and good working order being fully loaded with siemens V72s pre-amps (20 amps in total = 19 housed in the desk sides and one spare)
<br />
<br clear="left" />
The "s" of the V72s identifies it as a special "studio" version, a regular V72 was primarily intended for broadcast.
<br />
<br clear="left" />
V72s pre-amps were manufactured exclusively for emi and have 6db more gain than a regular V72.
<br />
<br clear="left" />
V72s pre-amps are very rare. according to "recording the beatles" book one former siemens employee estimates only 300 were ever manufactured.
<br />
<br clear="left" />
Also housed in the desk sides = 2 x V.U. meter amplifier type RS 128B /
Correlator type RS 133B / LFT tone generator H 480
<br />
<br clear="left" />
To be included in the sale = 23 x tuchel connector (15 x 3 pin & 8 x 5 pin)
(all permanent external connections are made at the back of the console with tuchel connectors)
<br />
<br clear="left" />
8 x siemens plugs / 18 x siemens "U-links" / 2 x siemens "U-link" 12 DB T pads / 2 x siemens "U-link" 14 DB T pads
(all internal connections - inserts / sends / returns etc - are made via siemens patch strips in the front and back of the console)
<br />
<br clear="left" />
Original mains connectors / Original assembly hardware / Vitavox type B 55 talk-back microphone / box of misc spares including valves & one spare painton fader (this type is very scarce)
<br />
<br clear="left" />
Copy of original block schematic (dated 7/9/56) & other relevant literature.
<br />
<br clear="left" />
If you want any further info please call 0208 985 8862 leave a message and i'll call back asap.
<br />

Sold as seen, buyer to arrange collection.

This was recently being sold by <a href="http://primalgear.com/used-consoles/">Primal Gear</a> (I think, it came from the Sphere Electronics mailing list I am on, who I think were bought out by Primal...?) Anyway its a lovely little 16 into 4 into 2 mixer that was going for $14k (£8k). These are late 70s broadcast desks really, so the mic pre-amps are not as good as the 80 series (what are?) but it would be a great little mixdown desk for most projects<br />

VIA THE EBAY SELLER (retro8central)<br />
This auction is for my lovingly restored Trident B range console. Not to be confused with later less desirable tridents such as the 80B, this is the original all discrete real deal using the same design as the A range consoles! This B range was built in 1975 and has made many famous hits and has become a very sought after console which has the classic British sound
<br />
<br clear="left" />
The console has had extensive work carried out By top techs Clive Kavan and Gwyn Mathias and is in good working order.
<br />
Here is the spec:
<br />
24 mic/line inputs with classic Trident 3 band EQ and filter, 16 output groups (15&16 is L/R buss)
<br />
16 monitors (switchable L/C/R) perfect for summing
16 echo returns (odd nos to L, even to R busses) perfect for summing
<br />
4 auxes -modded to access all 4 auxes using 4 pots from the 24 inputs. Original design was a switch to select 1-4 aux and one pot.
<br />
Total 56 inputs available on mixdown
<br />
Fully recapped with Nichicon Muse caps.
<br />
New hardwood monitor bridge
<br />
GPO patchbay
<br />
XLR sockets on rear for mic inputs
<br />
Circuit diagrams/schematics
<br />
<br clear="left" />
The history of this console:
<br />
I purchased it from a famous producer who has made many hit albums on this console from artists such as KT Tunstall, AHA, Cat Stevens, Jason Mraz, Mary J Blige, James Morrison to name a few...
<br />
He assured me it was he was told it was originally from Trident studios which was famous for recording Classic albums by Queen, Bowie and T-Rex. I have no solid proof but there are certain differences about this console than any other B range: It has been modified at the factory to have 4 auxes when only one would only be available to use at any one time on a standard console. I recently had a overhaul done by an Ex Trident factory manager Gwyn Mathias who pointed the fader plates were bronze in colour which was only fitted to A range consoles at Trident studios. The final thing about this special console is it has Belclere mic transformers which are the same type as fitted to early Neve consoles making the mic amps some of the best I have ever heard!
<br />
This has to be the most interesting console currently for sale on ebay. If you want to hear the sound of it listen to the artists listed above!

These Neves do come up occasionally, about once a year it seems! The 5300 is underrated compared to the other vintage Neves, and yet some people say the 33114 / 33115 preamp/eq are the best they ever made

These modules are class AB discrete and some say they sound better than the fabled class A versions (eg 1073s) because they are punchier and better on transients. Whatever flavour you prefer, there is something very compelling about this compact 24 channel desk from Neve's heyday
From the seller, who is asking £32000:
<i>This extraordinarily cute Neve console was just taken out of service in a private
studio in San Diego.
Before that, it was in a broadcast facility in the northeast.
It feaures 24 inputs that are mic or line with full equalization, and an additional
18 line inputs on remix giving you 42 channels when mixing.
8 of the additional line inputs have full length faders and the same 4 aux sends
as the input section.
Please look at all the pictures, and read our policys before bidding.
The four 33314 limiters are NOT included with this auction!!
There are 4 channels of 33114 input modules, as well as 20 of the 33115's.
There are 23 of the full 8 buss, 4 send 33752 aux modules, and one aux
module that offers access only to the stereo buss or buss 1/2.
We did locate another full 8 buss module available from a well known dealer .
Please note that the wooden trim top piece pictured is Not included in this
auction.
The rack mount unit on the left is NOT included in this auction.
There are 24 custom wired direct transformer balanced outputs, using all
Carnhill Transformers. I can make no warrentee whatsoever as to its
functionality. It is located at the bottom of the producers desk on the right.
The desk holding the patchbay is included if the buyer wants it.
There is one missing bottom panel.
There are a number of knobs with missing center caps;
they have for the most part been moved to the channel 22 - 24 modules.
The console bolster has a small piece of gaffers tape covering a slit in the
bolster.
This is an exceptionally cute mixer, just over 6 feet wide not including the
patchbay.
If I were keeping it, I would have new woodwork made,
and a new producers desk for the patchbay, and redo the bolster.
In any case, the console is sold as is, and as described here.
We have not tested the console.
It is quite evidently in very nice physical condition.
Like all vintage Neve's, no doubt it will require some tlc.
Although we are happy to assist , shipping and packing and all import and
shipping costs are the responsability of the buyer.
It is currently available for pickup in the Los Angeles area.
Winning bidder must contact us at the end of the auction to discuss payment
and shipping details.

Look at this amazing console that is up on ebay today. This kind of makes me angry, how can something like this end up in bits, unloved and unused!

Also the ebay seller has done something which really annoys me - they have put all the various bits of this stunning console up for auction IN DIFFERENT LOTS!! And they won't take an offer on the whole thing. I think this kind of behaviour is crazy and won't generate more money
I think the EQ modules are AM22's which were made by Glensound, so the whole thing could be Glensound, although it doesn't look like their usual style. Perhaps this is how they looked in the early 70s. The modules are all discrete germanium and probably would sound amazing and creamy. There is no info on the ebay auction pages, I'm guessing the seller knows nothing about them and this makes the whole deal even more treacherous, but hopefully they will find a good home...

Brian wrote a book about <a href="http://www.recordingthebeatles.com/">recording the Beatles</a>, which I thoroughly recommend if you are into vintage recording equipment (and you must be to be reading this!)
While I was at the studio I didn't actually use the Pacifica much, just to monitor with, because he has a lot of other preamps and compressors and I used those for this vocal-only recording. I'm going to mix it later at my studio on the MCI 416B. But the Pacifica had a really beautiful feel, everything is exquisitely crafted and solid feelingebenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02607633312790889832noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8541107277474575079.post-44835500207081773062011-12-05T14:46:00.001-08:002011-12-05T14:53:41.878-08:00EMI 1960's Console<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

From the ebay seller (console is in Hampshire and is unsold at £60k):
"This auction is your unique opportunity to buy an 18 channel EMI console.
This rare 1962 germanium transistor console has been refurbished and modified for use in a modern studio environment with the addition of EQ and conversion from mono to stereo with a pan pot on every channel. This is the only console of its kind in the world!
EMI console info:
Custom console built by EMI laboratories in 1962, lovingly cosmetically restored in 2010 with the addition of EQ and PAN.
The build quality of this console is the best. Everything is point to point wiring. The modules are made from machined steel and extremely heavy. The germanium transitors are cased in metal plug in modules to protect them from interferance and all the pots are stepped painton silver contact types which cost a fortune and never wear out (see last photo)...
18 inputs (all germanium) with 4 band EQ (two fixed, two swept) assignable to groups1-4
Every channel has:
mic in, line1 in and line 2 (600ohm)inputs.
30, 60, 200 and 600 ohms selector switch on mic inputs.
Stepped Input balance trim
Phantom power (individually switched)
All channels have inserts on patch which can also be used as low level direct outs.
Pan control
Aux1 and Aux2 and Aux3 send on every channel
Huge balancing transformers
Quadrant faders (illuminated) made by Painton
All inputs, inserts and outputs are on the supplied GPO patchbay which can either be located below the console or on the separate custom made producers table. If patch is mounted below the console the custom rack can hold your 19inch rack gear!
4 groups with original Ernest Turner meters
2 echo return channels
Separate bay/rack/producers table which holds the patchbay to the left of the console
paperwork /circuit diagrams included.
2U power supply for audio electronics.

From the seller (Canada, BIN £2700):
clean - tested - working .. great quality item .. Studer name .. compare to neve - much cheaper - but the same quality
I have tested each channel with original power supply using Studer CD A725 player Sure mic and Acoustic research monitors
very clean sound
no drops or old cranky sounds - very impressive massive variable sounds -
it takes 8 large AA batteries ( build in compartment ) or can use power supply 12V ( not included )

From the seller (NY NY, starting bid £9500)
Neve Kelso 10 channel console.
The starting price is the minimum bid. Please do not make lower offers.
This console does not have direct outs, though the rear panel is punched for XLR’s in preparation
for adding them.
Unit is in good working condition. Includes manual.
Wooden packing crate is included in price. Console has original capacitors, and has discrete
cards throughout. Nice, quiet console for recording or submixing. Uses high quality parts such as
those used in 1081 and other hi end Neve mic preamps, including the mic transformer and mic
pre card. It may be a smaller console but is not in any way lower quality and it sounds wonderful!
Includes power supply and cable.
This console was recently used on a project at Sony Mastering Studios for a summing mixer and
was very well received. Numerous projects have been summed on this console and it sounds very
good.
If you are looking at this, you may know everything about it, but if you have any questions
please email before buying. Overall condition is very good, but this is a used piece with it’s share
of scratches, nicks, dings and other indignities. It is perfectly useable and will delight the next
owner, but as an older piece may have an occasional scratchy switch or pot. If this concerns you
please bid accordingly.
Terms:
This is a USA auction only, I will not ship it outside the USA.
Shipping is at the cost and risk of the winning bidder. Payment is by Paypal, or cash on pickup in accordance with eBay policy.
Winning bidder must contact me within 1 day in order to preserve status.
New York residents, pickups are required to pay NYC sales tax, 8.875%.
Payment must be received within 3 days of end of auction. Deadbeats will be reported to eBay.
Thank you for bidding and good luck! Any questions please email before bidding.

From the seller (Ontario, Can, BIN £5700)
"ok kids, I'm selling my 48 as a 40 cause i need to keep 8 channels as spares for my 24. It is the one from the advertisement and was made for ABC Los Angeles back in the day. There is no patch bay, so getting this thing completely wired up would need someone with a lot of skill and patience. I was using it as a 48x2 with 6 sends. I wired directly onto the AB switches. the console uses a mixture of M460's and M460LA's. This thing is over-engineered to the point that every point on the console can be patched, and it is one of the only console in the world that is ompletely internally balanced (Neve, API are not!!!). There are appx 96 Edac Connectors on the bottom and it has built in DA's. This console is not for your home studio, its 9' long and weighs about 1600lbs loaded. Like every old console, you'll have to maintain it and get it up to speed on your own. I had to solder the insert points on the buckets closed so that i could run it as a mixer without building a PB. I want to sell it as a console, but if i can't then i will part it out and sell it that way. Pic 2 is the console in my studio last year working. I will include PSU's and any knowledge i have. This console was over $400k brand new. I went to replace one of the on/off switches on one of the channels and could do it with an $8 dollar switch, but an actual replacement switch was $106. There was no skimping on this thing, every part used was top notch. 460's are selling for $200/ea on ebay so if you bought this for the starting price, you would be paying for the channels and getting all the rest for free... This is a 6 month project for someone that really wants to make this the console it once was, but if you did it you would have a one of a kind monster untouched by anything anyone is making these days, including Mr. Neve and all the other people makin "summing mixers" and consoles... I'm listing as local pick up only, but shipping can be discussed. i had it shipped from LA to Canada a few years back, crating cost me $900 and shipping cost me another $1100. This thing is a pig.
For all you Beck heads, the channels have the big black transformers, not the little silver ones."

THE FOLLOWING TEXT IS TAKEN FROM THE EBAY AUCTION (seller f0lie, desk loc oregon, BIN £25k)
Up for sale is an extremely rare 20x8x2 1973 Opamp Labs R2008-16MMO Recording Console and 10x4 sidecar. This console came from Randy Bachman's 1970's "The Barn" studio in Lynden, WA. The studio recorded some Beach Boys, Bachman Turner Overdrive, and many others. If you do a google search "Bachman Manor" hosted many famous musicians in the 1970's including Frank Sinatra, the Beach Boys, members of the Beatles, and Sammy Hagar. All history aside, this console sounds amazing and on par with any vintage console on the market including any discrete API, NEVE, Quad Eight, Electrodyne, Sphere or Spectrasonics console from the same era. The console runs at +/-24VDC and has more headroom than an API console. All the EQ's use inductors giving the EQ a Pultec/Quad Eight smoothness not found in later IC chip designs. The microphone preamps sound punchy and full like a 1970's Quad Eight. According to Bob Olhsson of Motown fame: "Some of arguably the best sounding mixes of the 1970s (if not of all time) were made using the Opamp Labs-based console in Armin Steiner's Sound Labs mix room."
This console was one of the rare Opamp Labs consoles built at the Opamp Labs factory by Bel Losmandy in Los Angeles - meaning the build quality is all top-notch.
20x8x2 Main Console
(20) 360BM Microphone Preamps
(20) 325EQ Equalizers (Indcuctor based, two band, stepped frequency selection)
(20) Line inputs with optional Opamp Labs input transformers on each input
16 channel monitor section
4 echo sends (UTC output transformers) and returns (Opamp Labs input transformers) - All sends are pre/post selectable
8 busses with UTC A-22 output transformers (two outputs per buss for 16 track recording)
2 master outputs with UTC A-22 output transformers
Solo/Mute/Pan/Buss selection on each input
Direct outs on each channel through multipin connector
Full talkback and comprehensive monitoring capability
Built-in oscillator that automatically routes test tones to all the inputs or outputs
10x4 Sidecar
(10) 360BM Microphone Preamps
(10) 325EQ Equalizers (Indcuctor based, two band, stepped frequency selection)
4 echo sends and returns (pre/post selectable)
4 buss outputs
Direct outs on each channel through 5 pin XLR
The console comes with a box of spare opamps, full schematics, old photos of the console during construction, and original track sheets from "The Barn" studio in Lynden, WA. All the coupling capacitors have been replaced with high quality bipolar electrolytic capacitors (extending the low frequency) and 10 channels of EQ have been upgraded to use WIMA audiophile capacitors. The console has been in daily use at my home studio here in Portland, OR. The console has been fully restored, cleaned and is in excellent condition. Four new 901 relay modules and two 425C modules need to be purchased from Opamp Labs in LA, but I can handle that prior to delivery. Two button covers and two sub-selection switch knobs are missing from the sidecar but are also be available from Opamp Labs. The lightbulb covers for channel one (solo/mute indication) were missing when I purchased the console and replacing them was never a priority - since finding matching covers might be difficult - but I can do so if it is important to you. Although this console has been restored and has been in daily use, it's almost 40 years old so if you purchase the console I'd suggest being technically inclined or having the resource of someone who is at your disposal upon delivery to help you use and set up the console appropriately. That said, maintenance on this console is easy - if there's ever a problem with a channel you just swap out the opamps with a spare and you're back to recording. All the opamps used in the console are still for sale via Opamp Labs in LA, although the console comes with a ton of spares for the preamp, buss, and EQ modules - so I doubt you'll ever have anything that can't be handled quickly and cheaply.
Terms of Sale
20% down within 5 days of sale. The full payment must be made within 30 days. With years of experience restoring consoles and using them for my own recordings I strongly suggest that I be present for the installation of the console. No value can be placed on the experience of someone who has actually used a console and has done troubleshooting an a particular desk. If I am not present when the console is installed and there happens to be freight/shipping damage- troubleshooting these problems over the phone is almost nearly impossible. Although I have been, and will be, willing to help with your installation either in person or over the phone, I can not guarantee your happiness and will not be responsible for someone else's negligence or lack of technical proficiency. This console has been fully refurbished and recording daily for the last year, so please check my feedback and bid with confidence. More pictures can be supplied via email. If you are serious about this console email me your phone number so that we can discuss the console at length over the phone. Shipping is fully your responsibility, although I would be willing to deliver it to somewhere in the western USA for a fee. Happy Holidays!

No more pics, but the seller is the very reliable neve81series I believe (check the website <a href="http://www.81series.com/products.php?id=7">here</a>). They were asking $25K / £15k, heres what they said:<br />
<br />
<i>"For sale, Vintage Neve Console 8128 32 Channels Fully Refurbished and serviced by 81series.com <br />
<br />
The entire console has been recapped, bad potentiometers and switches replaced. Work was completed last week. <br />
<br />
This board is in excellent shape cosmetically.<br />
<br />
We have a waiting list on 32 channels, so this board will go fast. <br />
<br />
Shipping is $2,500.00 within the 48 Continental U.S. and $3,500.00 for the rest of the world. Overseas shipping price includes crating.<br />
<br />
Local pick-up and inspections welcome.<br />
<br />
Please bid only if you have the funds ready to be transferred. Payment must be sent in five business days and console will have to be shipped no later than 20 days after purchase.<br />
<br />
All sales are final. No returns or exchanges. Sold "as is" due to age.<br />
<br />
Thanks and good luck bidding!"</i>ebenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02607633312790889832noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8541107277474575079.post-13119649807596142612011-07-16T01:54:00.000-07:002011-07-16T01:54:25.501-07:00Yamaha PM1000OK, I want this, but alas it is in America and too expensive and complicated to organise<br />

From the ebay seller:<br />
<br />
<i>"Selling a vintage 16 channel Yamaha PM-1000 circa 1974-1976<br />
<br />
this Console works flawlessly.<br />
<br />
this one has been hot-rodded and has many features / upgrades above the stock version.<br />
sounds fantastic. has all discreet topology and inductor based eq's like some neves.<br />
below is a list of the modifications.<br />
<br />
<br />
- Entire board has been recapped. the modules and the power supply. i am not sure what kind of caps were used but i do have some fairly close up pictures <br />
and i could tell you the codes on any specific capacitor. <br />
<br />
- Direct outputs have been added. there is a very handy gold plated Cannon plug that inserts into the back of the console to provide 16 direct ouputs. insert the plug, twist to lock and you've got 16 direct outs. very well thought out. the plug connects to a Mogami snake with 16 neutrik XLR's on it. the cabling is about 15 feet and was frequently used as a remote preamp set in the live room. <br />
<br />
- Output transformers have been added on every channel. they are Tamura GA81720's. these balance the outputs and add several db of gain to the circuit. <br />
<br />
- All pots and switches have been lubed and cleaned or replaced. all pots are smooth, no scratches, and all switches work as intended.<br />
<br />
the board is in great shape. there are a few VU bulbs out and a few dings and scratches on the board in general but everything else is 100% working and will be in use till sold. <br />
<br />
a copy of the manual can be downloaded at; www.pmerecords.com/Docs/PM1000E_1.pdf<br />
<br />
with this board, you can use the 16 preamps directly out for tracking, access the bus matrix to combine certain channels together, use all or some of the board for mixing and stemming or you can do any combination of the above. <br />
<br />
This has worked like a dream. i've made many records with this board and some have sold very well, and been in films/TV. i am happy to give you examples upon request.<br />
<br />
this asking price reflects the cost of the original console, the research into modifications, all parts included (transformers, caps, wiring, plugs, cable, xlr's) and many hours of labor.<br />
<br />
<br />
This is the Story of the PM1000 as told by Harvey Gerst;<br />
<br />
Flashback:<br />
Time: Early 70's, Southern California<br />
<br />
Yamaha had just tried to enter the guitar amplifier market with an amplifier line that just plain sucked.<br />
They were so embarrassed by this line, they actually bought back every one of them from their dealers and destroyed them <br />
(over a million bucks worth, I was told).<br />
Anyway, they came to me and hired me as a consultant, and I helped them developed their "G100" etc... line of amps. <br />
Their long range plan was to have at least a 5% share of the American amplifier market. <br />
As we were finishing up the G line, their American product manager, showed me some pictures of a 4 channel board they were working on and asked <br />
if there was a market here for that product. They were concerned about introducing it here because it would be very expensive, and they didn't want another fiasco by <br />
showing the wrong products for an American market. The pictures were of a prototype PM1000.<br />
Teac, Dokorder, and several other tape recorder companies were already starting to sell 4 track recorders here, <br />
and I suggested that the timing would be perfect for the PM1000.<br />
I guess they decided to take my advice, and I believe they used the Neve as their model when they designed it. <br />
They lost money on the PM1000, I believe, by making it literally bulletproof. <br />
Over-engineering was important after coming off of a big embarrassment with their first guitar amp line. <br />
It was all Class A design and "overkill" was their watchword.<br />
At the same time, they started to introduce their High Fidelity products as well, with recievers, <br />
amplifiers, and tuners; all made to a really high set of standards.<br />
They learned from their first mistake in the American Market, and never repeated it.<br />
<br />
<br />
a great value for about $218.75 per channel.<br />
<br />
feel free to contact me with any questions. i have many more pictures. the board will be installed until the day it sells. contact me if you would like to come see it / test it.<br />
<br />
the bottom line is that this console has served me incredibly well and has never once disappointed me. i'm sad to see it go but i need the money. <br />
<br />
buy this board and cut hits.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
SHIPPING<br />
this board is heavy. <br />
it's about 35" x 35" x 11" and weighs about 135 lbs.<br />
it can be shipped easily but i would prefer you to make all shipping arrangements. <br />
if i make arrangements i will charge have to charge extra for it.<br />
i've used $300.00 as an estimate only because that's what i've been told it will cost via UPS.<br />
you will pay the actual cost above or below $300.<br />
i can have it boxed <br />
otherwise, i will be happy to drop it off unboxed at a local shipping facility<br />
<br />
of course local pickup is most welcome, only 2 hrs from NYC<br />
<br />
<br />
thanks for looking, <br />
<br />
happy bidding!"</i>ebenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02607633312790889832noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8541107277474575079.post-84025911557940141072011-07-16T01:46:00.000-07:002011-07-16T01:48:37.519-07:00Small SoundtracsI'm not a huge fan of soundtracs consoles, having owned two large ones over the years. The first was a CM4400 32 channel split console, then a 32 ch Virtua digital desk. Both were OK desks, but in the end their uninteresting and 'boxy' sound wore me down and I moved on. However, this cute little desk could be pretty useful at a meagre £650...<br />

From the seller, who is in the UK:<br />
<br />
<i>"Soundtracs are well known for their commercial quality boards, high performance bang for buck value and excellent build quality. The 16/8/2 is a relatively small console, probably about the same as a 16 Channel Mackie 8 buss but with an obvious higher end heritage. This one is in remarkable condition and looks to have received the most modest of use, very little marking at all with polite, non commercial use.<br />
<br />
This is probably a less well known console but would be regarded as equal too and generally better than something similar in the Mackie vein except with more of a vintage character.<br />
We believe it to be in full working order, probably requiring a service in keeping with an item that has not been used regularly. <br />
<br />
It is sold as is and has only been tested for power up.<br />
This item is available from our Website so we reserve the right to remove this from Ebay."</i><br />

Measurements:<br />
55.5" wide 36" deep 16" tall <br />
IF YOU JUST CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT IT<br />
AND YOU CAN SEND SOMEONE TO PICK IT UP FROM MY HOME<br />
THEN I SAY , LET'S GET ER DONE<br />
<br />
<br />
Excerts from various audio forums, some of them explain the difference between a pm1000 - pm 2000 and this console.<br />
<br />
The PM1000 has great N3v3-ish sounding preamps, but lacks in output level as standalones. This may not impact WWforum low level recordists, as you can get very solid sounds at the levels they advise. The EQ is a very primitive three band semi-para of the 73 type... totally non-surgical and not very musical. I don't think the PM1k has direct outputs or channel inserts. The mix bus sounds like mush when hit (not in a good way, in a smeary way). There is no real routing compared to even a Blaringer or Make-me mixer. No true stereo inputs or outputs. You can track with a PM1000, but racked up channels are actually better IMHO than the whole board since the pres and the XFMRs are the only really cool attributes. I would not mix on a PM1000 unless I had to.<br />
The PM2000 has great sounding preamps of the API school. When in proper order, they sound excellent. The EQ is a crude version of the 550A type, but lacks the vari-Q which makes the API significantly more useful and musical. The mix buss and routing are usable, but not ideal since busses and masters aren't calibrated stereo faders but assignable mono faders. I have mixed on a PM2000 and been happily surprised with the results. I also own one and have a great affection for it.<br />
<br />
The m1516 and m1532 are very close in most respects to the PM2000 but have switchable redundant inputs for other applications (theater?, television?) and a slightly different EQ, metering and matrix. I also own one of these that I track with regularly.<br />
I consider all three to be among the best buys in pro audio.<br />
<br />
I believe that the M1516, M1532, and M916 use the same DOA (Discrete-Op-Amps) as the PM1k/2k...<br />
This would be the main reason the consoles are referred to as "API Clones". API's use their own 2520 DOA while these yammi's use their own DOA which is apparently pin compatible with the 2520's...<br />
The M series are also x-former i/o balanced although I'm not sure if it's the same part as in the PM's."</i><br />

<br />
After retirement from many years of scoring at Warner Brothers, Frank Jones (Owner of Castle Oaks Productions) has decided to diversify and expand his production sound services division and selectively pursue film projects as an independent supervisor.

<br />
Shortly after, demand for the console continued to grow and we modified the consoles Aux send modules to allow for an exclusive 8 mono sends to be allocated per channel, which only further increased the customers demand to work in our facility.

This amazing console is located in the US and is being sold by <a href="http://www.vintageking.com/EMI-TG12345-Mark-IV-Abbey-Road-Console-used?sc=14&category=82276">Vintage King</a>. Here is what they have to say<br />
<br />
QUOTE FROM VINTAGE KING:<br />
<i>"The EMI TG12345 Console is a legendary desk that went through four variations. Originally built to custom specifications in EMI’s own engineering facilities at Hayes, Middlesex, England, the TG12345 was the first solid-state recording console to be manufactured by EMI. By the late 60s, transistors and multi-track recorders had become the cutting edge of audio technology, and EMI spent considerable time designing and building a custom desk that could handle the larger number of inputs and outputs necessary for multi-tracking. The result was the TG12345 console, designed to be used in EMI recording facilities worldwide. <br />
<br />
The first desk, the Mk I, was installed at EMI’s famed Abbey Road studios in December of 1968, and saw use on the final album recorded by the Beatles, the aptly-named Abbey Road. Several Mk I desks were manufactured, to be followed shortly by a modified version, known as the Mk II. Continued refinement saw the introduction of the Mk III, which was used at EMI’s international locations, but never at Abbey Road itself. <br />
The last in the line of these consoles was the Mk IV. Only two of these desks were ever made, and the first of these is now offered for sale. This is a very rare opportunity to own a piece of audio recording history!<br />
<br />
This particular TG12345 Mk IV console was initially installed in Abbey Road Studio Three in December of 1971. Three years later in November 1974 it was moved to the big room, Studio One, where it resided until it was decommissioned in December 1983. Studio One is Abbey Road’s largest live room, and can easily handle a full orchestra, plus a choir. Consequently, this desk saw quite a bit of use on film scoring sessions, including the orchestral portions for the film of Pink Floyd The Wall, (see the photo of David Gilmour and Roger Waters leaning on this desk). Other film work included the original Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back, Superman, Raiders of the Lost Ark and many others.<br />
<br />
Although this particular desk is virtually unique, many of the channel modules are similar in design to earlier versions of the TG12345. This desk is the sound of Abbey Road throughout the 1970s, when classic albums such as Dark Side of the Moon, (recorded on the only other Mark IV ever made), were tracked and mixed on these legendary consoles. Only 14 of these desks are known to still exist, and most owners wouldn't part with them for any amount of money. Never available to the public during their heyday - and maybe never available again - this is a unique opportunity to own a unique desk from the control rooms of Abbey Road.<br />

The auction ended a few weeks ago - i had a little nibble!<br />
<br />
From the seller [renny1416 from portsmouth uk]<br />
<br />
<i>'Studer 089 vintage mixing console. A very rare and sort after mixer from 1969.<br />
<br />
Comes with full service manuals.<br />
<br />
The mixer its self is complete except for the speaker amp cards located underneath.<br />
<br />
Was all working fine before it was put into storage but id say as with any this old it will need a service.<br />
<br />
My knowledge on the unit is limited but ill do my best to answer any questions.<br />
<br />
Very heavy so im afraid it will have to be collection.<br />
<br />
I can also arrange to meet the buyer halfway.<br />
<br />
Thanks'<br />

<br />
<i>"Up on the auction block: Historic Langevin Recording Console<br />
<br />
Please re-read description as the console has been removed from the table now for shipping...<br />
<br />
This auction is for a one-of-a-kind custom Langevin console built in the 60's for recording engineer Kearney Barton. Kearney has recorded the following artists in the "golden age" with this exact board: The Kingsmen, The Standells, The Sonics, Earl Hines, Paul Bley, and many others. He's an illustrious character in the history of northwestern American music and has recorded so much great music, but is now retiring from the music industry. Almost all of his other equipment has sold locally in the Seattle, WA area.<br />
<br />
The mixer is fitted with 21 Langevin AM16 amplifiers, 2 Langevin 252 graphic eqs, 3 Langevin 251a 2-band equalizers, 2 low pass filters, and 2 high pass filters. The board is also extravagantly appointed with a single pan pot module that is patchable, as are the equalizers. This entire board is patchable; it almost looks like a modular synth. A local tech, long-time friend to Kearny, and Seattle native has helped put together a .pdf describing the signal flow of the console for potential buyers. This PDF is viewable in the classifieds at gearslutz dot com by searching for "historic langevin console". Even if you're not interested in making an offer on the board, I'd encourage a read through the .pdf as a reminder of how a great simple design could be used to make music in that decade. This board is obviously not a candidate for a commercial installation. Someone who is looking to do back-to-basics raw rock / soul / funk recordings would be seriously rewarded though. The sound of the solid state AM16 amplifier is well documented as a great classic, smooth and punchy solid state design.<br />
<br />
Original asking price was 20K. That is just over going rates for the amps and eqs at fair market, plus a small amount more for the historic importance of the board, and the routing / faders / etc. For example, AM16 in tray = $600, 252a = $800-$1200, 251a = $500, the HP and LP filters... when you start to add it up you'll see where we got that #. Everything on the board currently works, and there really wouldn't be many capacitors to redo b/c there aren't many in the design. Also, very few switches can fail because of the patchable design, and aside from cleaning the faders there wouldn't be that much maintenance on the board needed. The fact that everything is done through patch points, not switches, actually lowers the noise floor of the whole desk considerably and contributes to a very "upfront" sound. This board was very nearly sold 2 weeks ago, but things happen and now we're putting it on eBay because the buyer changed his plans. We really hope that the board is not parted out and is used as a complete console!<br />
<br />
The console pictures were taken before it was decommissioned. The small monitor section off to the right is included in the auction. The turntable is not. Also, the table that is pictured is *not* included, as the console has been removed from it for shipping and crating. A new mount / table will need to be constructed by the new owner... since we don't know where it will be installed, it seems to make sense to allow the new owner to customize it to their situation. This will also make it smaller for shipping.<br />
<br />
There is one fader cap missing, and a couple of pots need cleaning. Other than that, the board is fully passing signal and all functions working, but the board is sold in as-is condition, it will most certainly need some degree of work to get it fully installed. The board comes with 3 spare pots. A simple 8 into 1 monitor mixer is included, as is a talkback mic and relay box. A huge number of TT cables are also included for patching the console, as nothing is normalled.<br />
<br />
The board is available for pickup in Seattle, WA. We will consider freight shipping and could help organize that. It would be incredibly heavy to move overseas. Do not let our low feedback as a seller discourage you; the person that is organizing and posting the auction is an ebay seller under the name the_holy_mountain with very high feedback, but this auction needs to be listed under Kearney's eBay account for financial / accounting reasons.<br />
<br />
Dimensions:<br />
<br />
The mixer is 60" long, 26" deep, and 10" high at the tallest point of the cabinet. It has a flat bottom and could rest on a table, or be dropped in another table as pictured. The mixer sat in a recess in the table top. That recess was about 4" deep.<br />
<br />
Appx. 500 lbs in total weight, but some of this could be broken up into smaller packages.... i.e. all the AM16 modules, the console frame, the power supply, the meter bridge, the small monitor section, the wiring harness, etc. Many notes will be provided for the new owner as to how to wire it back up, but it will take someone who is skilled with electronics to re-assemble after shipping.<br />
<br />
<br />
For serious international buyers, please write for a shipping quote--YOU MUST INCLUDE YOUR CITY AND ZIP CODE. Due to<br />
<br />
the weight and value of this item, shipping overseas will be very expensive (in the $3000 and up range depending on location).<br />

<br />
BUYER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR FULL SHIPPING AND CRATING. DO NOT USE THE EBAY SHIPPING CALCULATOR. IF YOU ARE SERIOUS ABOUT BUYING, CONTACT US AND WE CAN TRY TO GET SOME SORT OF QUOTE TOGETHER.<br />

<br />
impossible to insure the unit at it's full value when shipping.<br />

<i>"Up for auction is my Neve V1 recording console. This was up for auction a couple of months back but the buyer flaked so I'm listing it again. This was built in 1986 by Neve UK. It spent the better part of it's life in a studio in Nashville before I became the owner. It is a 36 channel frame loaded with 32 channels and 4 blank panels. It has 32 channels plus 2 master channels of Uptown System 2000 moving fader automation which works perfectly with a great condition solid 286 PC.<br />
<br />
Here are some specs:<br />
<br />
4 band Eq, compressor, gate/expander on every channel.<br />
32 small faders can be used as another 32 inputs at mixdown for 64 total or can be assigned as a send (I used it for parallel compression on drums etc.).<br />
Every channel assignable to 48 busses and/or L-R out.<br />
3 different "Master" modes, Tracking, Overdubbing, Mixing. Determines routing, function of small faders etc. Very flexible.<br />
Plasma metering plus 2 VU's on master.<br />
The old Necam automation section of the master has been disabled, The Uptown is sooo much better and functions are controllable from the individual faders (write, touch, latch) and from a small panel next to the master faders (cue's extra modes etc).<br />
8 Aux sends, 4 stereo Returns and 2 stereo Cue mix busses.<br />
Direct outputs on every channel.<br />
2 master mute groups A+B.<br />
<br />
<br />
The console is in excellent cosmetic condition and very good working condition. There are a few minor problems such as a few sticky switches, to be expected with consoles of this age but they are relatively minor problems that any good tech can take care of. I have replaced most of the bad switches myself and still have a large bag full of new replacement switches and other spare parts. I recently had my tech come over and spend a couple of days going through everything as it had been turned off for the last 3 months. He took a thorough look through the board and told me that all the channel strips have been completely recapped, the only thing not recapped are the auxes & center section. Also the powers supplies while working totally fine could at some point in the future have their large power supply caps replaced but he said it was not a very pressing issue.<br />
<br />
Functionally the console is working great, there are no bad eq's or comps or anything like that so a buyer would be able to get right to work on it. Al the patchbays work totally fine.<br />
<br />
The power supplies (x2) are sturdy Kingshill Supplies and surprisingly don't get particularly hot and are not noisy. I was able to have them in the control room with me without any problems. Good for someone like me with a smaller project studio and no dedicated machine room.<br />
<br />
The Uptown System 2000 moving fader automation is very smooth and works perfectly. I love using this system, it still gives any control surface a run for it's money in terms of tactile feel and smoothness (IMO). It runs on a 286 PC. The software is the latest version 3.11 (DOS based) and is very easy and intuitive to learn.<br />
<br />
The real strong suit of this console in my opinion is the Eq. Sure it's no Class-A 1073, it's a more modern IC based EQ but it really kicks ass. It can be extremely aggressive and as radical as say an SSL 4k or it can be very gentle and sweet sounding. The Eq is the thing I will miss most about this console. The compressors are okay, I wouldn't really pick them over any of my outboard but the gates are excellent as are the hi-pass/lo-pass filters. <br />
<br />
Another good way I found to run this console was to use the right side for mic pre's into Pro Tools and the first 16 on the left at unity gain as a line level summing mixer. It definitely made a huge difference to my ITB mixes if I needed to go that way.<br />
<br />
The patchbay is extensive and allows for a large Pro Tools rig or Tape machine to be normalled to the line in's plus facility for lots of outboard gear. Everything is on Edac 56's on the back of the board.<br />
<br />
I have the two huge original manuals that came with the board which include all the schematics. I also have DVD of all the pin outs for the external connections on the back. Everything is on Edac 56's.<br />
<br />
My Mogami snakes are NOT included in the price but may be for sale also if the price is right.<br />
<br />
I will consider shipping the console but I don't advise it. Not only is it extremely heavy but it has to come apart to transport and takes a fair amount of re-commissioning the other end. It would be far better for a potential buyer to turn up in a truck, watch it be disassembled and know how to take it off/put it on the stand etc. just like I did. It's not that difficult, it just needs to be seen in person. Also, I'd be more than happy (for a small fee) come to the buyer's studio to help re-assemble it.<br />
<br />
The console is sold "as-is". I would prefer a potential buyer to come visit my studio in person (and with their tech if they prefer) so they can go over it and see it in action before they commit to buy it. It is fully up and running so bring a hard drive and bring up a mix.<br />
<br />
Payment upon pickup preferred.<br />
<br />
Please feel free to send me an Ebay message if you have any more questions.<br />
