As far as impressing clients I remember seeing a post a while back (with a
picture even) where a guy used a DAW but built a big fake desk just to
impress clients. He said clients that heard his work loved it and would hire
him but were turned off when they showed up to his place and saw he was
doing it on just a small computer. Go figure.

The main purpose of an audio recording studio's mixing desk is to mix
audio
signals.

That's but one of its purposes. I think the more salient aspect of the
desks
role is as the central audio signal routing device, including the patchbay
as a
functional element of the mixing desk.
