Ebay God

[Monstro]

As some of you know we're looking at opening our own recording studio, biggest stumbling block was (WAS) a mixing desk, we were looking around at some that would do us a turn until such time we could afford a 24 channel Soundcraft Ghost, kind of the industry standard for analogue recording.

That was until this evening when the god of Ebay scored this, a 32 (yes, 32) channel Soundcraft Ghost at a never seen before price!!!!!!!

nice bit of kit that, especially if you can pick one up for a bargain price. Is it the standard version with automation?

Likewise.
Do the knobs turn up to 11?

No, parlour tricks not included with this one lol

So it's the LE then. I get what you say about parlour tricks, but I was referring to mute automation rather than motorised faders. Imagine 24 or 32 tracks with the faintest hum during 'silent' parts of that particular track, eg amp buzz on an electric guitar input, or hiss from a tape input etc. added together it wouldn't just be a barely audible hum anymore. You could manually mute/unmute channels as per a cue sheet when mixing, but automation makes it much much simpler and less stressful. Still though, it's a very very nice console!

[Monstro]

Not the LE, sorry, thought you were referring to the motorised faders

[samurai7]

Oh yeah, and don't forget when you're up and running to let me know so I can come round and have a lookee (and maybe do a bit of recording?)

[Monstro]

You're welcome anytime m8, next time you're up this way Anji will show you round the studio she's in at the mo, give us some warning if you want musicians or just bring backing tracks and go for it. For you the first EP done free.
