Sorry folks but I have to say the following: If you don't know what this is PLEASE research it on your own. I am not taking informational questions. I spent a lot of time explaining to folks what a "sidecar" is.



If you don't understand what a 32 x 8 x 2 configuration is and that there is no master fder section since it is a SIDECAR,,,, PLEASE don't ask. This means that you are not a professional and not qualified to buy or use this console. Sorry I don't mean to be rude but a lot of you just assume that I am here to educate you. I just don't have the time.



If you don't understand that this is a 300 pound configuration and have no experience shipping or picking up expnsive electronics PLEASE don't ask. This is a freight item only ($1500-$1800 within the U.S. and $4800 to the U.K. by a qualified and insured outfit like Rockit Cargo).



If you intend to buy the console with the buy it now then STICK ME with the freight like a complete jerk moron by the name of  (kevin shields from bloody valentine) did last year in England , definitely DO NOT ASK and DO NOT BUY IT NOW without understanding that there is FREIGHT to be added. Tha moron tried to pull a fast one on paypal claiming he expected free shipping. You need to pick this up in person or arrange for freight and pickup on your own.


You will need three or more men to handle this beast.


.

Having said all of this, here is ALL the information that you will need.


Up for sale is my pristine 32 channel Daking sidecar mixer. If you don’t know what this is, it is simply 32 channels of the famous Daking mic pre amp with full eq and the ability to mix to eight bus outputs and a stereo output. Each channel also includes 4 sends.

 

Professional Recording Mixer

This is the ideal front end solution for a pro tools system. Daking is considered one of the best mic pre amps in the industry and their direct competitors are API, SSL, and NEVE etc. The world famous drummer Dave Weckl (Chick Corea, Mike Stern) uses Daking pre amps on all his drums recordings.

 

Maintenance

This mixer has been in my smoke free home studio and was used very scarcely over the past 5 years or so. It was professionally maintained and upgraded by David Thibodeau (Daking lead engineer and designer of the FET III compressor). David is Geoff Daking’s partner and is responsible for design and technical innovation at Daking. David upgraded the wiring on the chassis and replaced a rotary potentiometer on every channel. He tested the mixer and certified it up to date.

 

Cables/Patchbays/Stand

The mixer comes with a sturdy stand and a separate power supply. Each channel has a combination XLR/Line in input, a Direct output and sends.

 

Warranty

Since the mixer was completely gone over and maintained properly, I am including a non DOA and an additional 90 day warranty which includes repair/replacement by Daking Inc. This mixer is in almost brand new condition.

 

Price

Also, if the price seems a little high, consider that each Daking mic pre-amp retails for almost $1900 and sells on ebay for around $1250 dollars. When you factor in that you are also getting an eight bus mixer and 4 sends per channel, the value begins to establish itself at my selling price. I am not interested in any trades for anything by the way.

 

Shipping/Freight

SHIPPING or FREIGHT ARE NOT INCLUDED !!!!!!!!

Although freight on this mixer is possible, I highly recommend that a local pickup be performed. This is an extremely heavy item and will need a serious effort to move it. I can still get a quote for a door to door shipper who specializes in delicate electronics if you need it. 

 

Email/Pictures

I would be happy to answer any questions about the mixer so please feel free to email or call Lee at 703 834 8899 if you like. I can also provide more pictures if you need anything specific.


Offers

I may accept a reasonable offer but please don't be like the moron that sent a $2000 dollar offer. All you will do is end up getting yourself BLOCKED from future bidding/communication etc. That was insulting. People never cease to amaze me.
