Daking's are based on Trident A-Range, I doubt you'd find many engineers that would choose to track with SSL pre's over Trident A Range/Daking - even SSL jockies. Now when it comes to mixing that would be a different story based on functionality (automation, recall, sends, busses, gates and compressors), not on sound. If I had the cash I'd have both a 9000 for labor intensive mixes and the Daking for tracking and small mixes. For now I chose my Daking console over an SSL.

Make that 2 please. anyone here in finance?
