    Keeping the console just to wow the customers?

    True dat. WHAT console it is matters too if you are going down that path. If it's taking up room, you don't want it to be an antiquated digital board or some Mackie. Space is precious, fill it with someone good!

    Keeping the console just to wow the customers?

    I get what Brian is saying and in a metal world, I've never met anyone that really cared about a board. My demographic is more garage rock, country, bluegrass, and the likes. All of those styles pay me MORE to use analog, especially when mixing happens, and many rent to mix on it themselves...

Every time I use it I get a nice growl but good lord is it honky...

    Please help with a studio build

    Take it from a guy that uses a larger format console...go smaller than you think. AKA Allen and Heath GS3000 is perfect. I got in over my head and 2 years later are just now seeing the end of renovations. But nothing beats working with a console, specially with tracking. Cabling for just in...
