All,
I have owned my studio for about a year and it is time to re-invest. I have been looking to replace my beloved Clarec. The console sounds fantastic, but lacks some of the features I am looking for, like automation and tape return faders.
I have been looking at an SSL 4048E with G computer, black EQ throughout and bargraphs. I have done vast research and it seems to be at a really good price. I have also been offered a mint AMEK Galileo 56. It has never been installed and has 24 Neve modules. I have never heard the Galileo in anger, so have nothing to comapre it against.
I want to make sure I am doing the right thing with the SSL. It is such a large investment and even tho my business has flourished and I know I can make it work, this is probably the biggest single descision I have had to make as a business owner.
So, in the opinion of the learned people on this forum, which one would you prefer? AMEK Galileo or SSL 4000?
I am not asking for a business rubber stamp here, cos I have done all my plans and figures. I am just trying to get opinions.
Thanks,
Mark du Plessis
