Daking 1112 Console

[chrisso]

There was just a thread on this.
I think it was called:
'Has anyone used the Daking console'.
You should be able to find it with a search on Daking.

they are not cheap (around $20K for a 16 channel, I believe). I have the pre/comp package and it is wonderful. Lots of headroom but the pres have a very colored and sometimes grainy sound (Jensen transformers). Great for rock and roll. Consider whether you want the same kind of preamp sound on every channel.

i used to rent API and Neve stuff for tracking drums at my project studio but since i've gotten a rack of Dakings pre/Eq...i have not miss the Neve/API at all....hey are GREAT....but as BerndG said, they are not transparent sounding pre..i find them sounding a tad similar to the old Trident stuff...BTW, the EQ is great also. Good luck.
