re: Help a club pick a console to replace an aging Crest VX.

Ill add a PM5k to the list! The crest I have was replaced in its previous venue with a 5k but all the engineers preferred the sound of the crest :/ Also, I've added the Audient Aztec though it's in the high end and ill be lucky to find one under 8k. I actually just found a Heritage 1000 for 8k as well and while its a killer deal I just can't justify it given what the non-purple desks are going for. I can replace both our consoles for as much with a pair of MH's for that much. Any XL like heritage and gambles are still bringing real money. I'd consider a ML although I prefer the sound of the crest. It's still a good desk though. I'me also keeping my eyes open for another crest VX as a parts desk. I have a box of cards for mine and its easy to work on I'm just getting tired of it. I've got too many other things to keep up with. I never even got around to doing op amp mods and such maybe I should put it in my home studio when I yank it out of the club and get tweaky
