LV: Got the board!
Question:
Looks good. Can’t wait to light it up. It’ll be the heart of a computer-based recording rig. Looking forward to something simpler than the conventional stuff (not that it isn’t great, but sometimes, you just want to keep it simple…) It’s sort of like having a good, light, digital camera for times when you don’t want to lug around the 35mm and 20 pounds of extra lenses. Best, Freep

Freep, What kind of board is it.. ? ? I must’ve missed the original thread… I’ve got an old Mackie 1604 (??) that I’m hoping to use in a home/gig recording rig… still crawling along with stuff that’s *higher* on the to-do list…

I got it from LV, I was just letting him know it got here fine. Don’t know if you saw it, but a couple weeks ago he posted a bunch of stuff he had to sell, among which was a Topaz 12-2, I think it’s called. It’s a neat little board; all the good stuff, phantom power, well lit displays, dual effects send/receive, balanced both cannon and TRS connectors, etc, which your smaller, inexpensive boards tend to skimp on. I patched an open reel tape deck into it, to try out the levels and all that, and patched a Lexicon into the effect send to try that out. Works well. Now I’m going to have to do some recording. Another adventure begins, Freep
