Description

1970’s Studer A-800 Mk1 24-Track 2” Tape MachineOn consignment. Very good conditionThis is a piece of history. This is a fantastic sounding machineOwned by legendary engineer Richard Dodd. Richard famously engineered the album Wildflowers by Tom Petty. His mastering credits are so extensive and impressive I couldnt even pick one to include here. This machine was originally commissioned at the original AIR Studios Oxford Circus in London. At the time it was the first Studer A 800 present in England.

Very impressive microphone that is suitable on anything

Stepped gain pots

and with high SPL sources it has a gooey natural compression

I've worked these consoles for years and they are so capable of handling a ton of signals and achieving a great sound
