I have used both and freaking LOVED the Chandler. The Neve didn't really do that much for me beyond what I can get in the box. The Chandler has some majorly cool mojo. I do mostly rock... and the width and fullness of the Chandler gave me something that only running through an old Neve console had ever gotten me before (though not exactly the same of course).
I might even ditch my console next year and go back to ITB with 3 of the Chandler mini mixers for summing (yes, I have 48 channels of Aurora converters). And really, to me... the more channels you go out to... the wider, and more "real" the mix starts to sound.
To me the Neve just didn't rock the boat. Also... I don't get the fader pack. I mean... what would you use it for? You can't automate those faders... so for a summing mixer... I just want a detent at 0... you know? I will automate in the box.
JMTC...
p.s. 2 years ago I tried just about every summing box out there... and preferred the Chandler... but couldn't quite afford it. I stick with my folcroms which combined with Chandler Germanium pre's for makeup is STILL my 2nd favorite. The Tanner thing looks cool though. How come I can't find any place online that has his full product line???
