that's right a 501! I actually have two of them can you believe!?! probably the only two in Australia.

we're going through and replacing all the opamps at the moment. can't wait to get it up and running.

Joel Hamilton modded the crap out of this board when he owned it... fully discrete line amps, etc... also, we might have some spare stuff that the other needs...

they are great consoles... the EQ is one of the best I have ever heard.

Lets talk more about the wonderful world of Auditronics... mine is #007... made for Donny and Marie Osmond...

all these small monitors....and NS-10's....y'all got me depressed.

(all these pictures are really just on the studio site, but they're the best ones I've ever taken, so nothing special.)

Image

Sound Workshop 1280B, recapped, new opamps, runs super clean, but has a really nice deep tone in the low end.

Restored JBL 4311b's. Alnico midrange. Recapped crossovers. Voice of God.

Image

The current rack. 8 output channels; 8 channels of compression; nothing more, nothing less. Every one does a different thing. The Ureis are both recapped and sound great.

But the real exciting part is the main room:

Image

No fancy compressor or Neumann (or plugin, or Space Echo) will get you that room sound.

Still hoping to get in there for drum tracks on the new Donny record...sometime this century. :roll:
