Arrow I need a little board...

I have a nice Roland studio with most bells and whistles, but I want to get a nice quiet analogue board, probably a 12x2 or thereabouts, for sub-mixing drums, etc.

The last board I bought (in 1985!) was a Soundcraft, and these days, I don't know which of the boards is quietest. Anybody have strong opinions, or a source of professional reviews?

Also, if I lose my mind and decide to set up Pro Tools or similar, which moderate size board would be most useful in interfacing with Pro Tools?

Thanks.

Budget?

You are in luck.

A 12 input board of any desired quality may be had for a price proportionate to overall quality. For the bargain end of things, a 16 input board by Soundcraft or Mackie would probably work. No love lost on some of the EQ sections, but for summing, will work fine.

If you want to approach theoretical minimum noise spec's, prepare to pay more.
