I did, but it was decades ago, and it was in a broadcast application. The things to watch out for in general on consoles of that era: 1. quality of controls -- many inexpensive consoles were built with consumer grade pots and switches that went bad. I don't remember the Auditronics as feeling cheap but again it's been a long time. How does it feel? 2. Internal impedances... a lot of late 70s/early 80s consoles were made with high-Z networks and fet input op-amps. This keeps prices down, heat down, and allows you to use a tiny power supply, but it makes for noise problems by modern standards. Get the schematic and if you see 100M pots, expect noise. I remember the EQ on the Auditronics as being kind of limited, but I don't really remember anything good or bad about it. It didn't make me pull my hair out though. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis." And thank you for reminding me of the two Tascam Model 10s I used to have strapped together. Looked great. That is all. |
