Hello everyone, I'm building a new little glorified low budget home studio in my basement. This thread is to document the process and to get advice from you pro's when I'm not sure on something. Isolation: I'm going a little bit beyond standard basement construction as this space will...

So as part of 2013's plan to get OTB as much as possible I got myself a Midas Venice F24. It's my first ever mixing console and I wanted to make sure to get the best I could. It is awesome. I'm running a 12U Euro set-up into it plus a Tanzbar and a few synths. As a purely analog solution it is...

Apparently Midas has a new digital console coming out. Game changer? Who knows. They are making a big deal out of it whatever it is. [="http://www.midasconsoles.com/"]Midas Consoles[/] Oh, and you could win a Midas Venice F if you sign up for their spam.

Hi guys! I've got two channels from 1976 Midas CR01 recording console that I want to rack up. Does anyone have any pinout/wiring diagrams? Thanks

I do a reasonable amount of live work. Midas as you would all know is a live sound reinforcement leader. Very expensive. And i rarely get to work with them. Just read bout the XL42 rack mount dual channel pre and eq. [="http://midasconsoles.com/xl42.php"]Midas Consoles | XL42[/] USD...

Hello Need some help or suggestions. I'm only going to record hardware synths. (all controlled by midi) Plan is to only use outboard effects and the eq on my Venice and just record the stereo out from the mixer to my soundcard. With this approach, how do I connect my active...

I'm wanting to get a small analog console for my studio. I've used a Ramsa DA7 for around 8 years, it died, and I want to move on. I can get a Midas Venice 320 for less than $3700 shipped. The other consoles I'm thinking about (Trident and Toft) are in range budge-wise as well. I am just...

Hey guys. I'm squirrelling away my pennies for one of these and I see prices that are all over the map! A guy on ebay sells them new for 2300 which seems too good to be true. I see online the retail is somewhere around 3400, but I'm not sure. I have a quote from my favorite tube guy...

Anybody have a Midas Venice 320? I wanted to know what you guys paid for it. I keep seeing that they sell new for around $5000 But a couple of web-site's I went to said "the Midas 320 can be had easily for around $3000 in the US" I was wondering if that is true? Or if someone can atleast...

I have an XL42 which I don't make much use of these days. I want to sell it on ebay or somewhere similar, can anyone give me a rough idea in GBP of what I should ask? Ta.

Folks We are about to purchase a Venice for our live rig. I'm just wondering how they perform in the studio. Mainly for tracking purposes. I'm hoping it will be good enough to track drums and maybe guitars? Thanks Mark

anybody got a midas, venice board? I was curious if they are more of a live board? I am looking for a board that will be good at mostly recording sessions. Thanks

Hello, I'm looking to upgrade my recording studio console. I'll be tracking up to 16 live tracks, and this board will be used for recording only. I've seen/heard the Midas Venice in a live situation before but never in the studio. I know it's intended for more of a live usage, but the 16...

Hello all, I hope I am putting this in the right place. I apologize if it is not. I need some help recording. I am the sound guy at my church, not because I know what I am doing but because I "inherited" the position. The problem I am having is getting the recording level higher. We have a...

I am looking at getting a MIDAS Venice 320 or a Crest Audio HP Eight 32 mono/5 stereo console. I am the singer/writer/producer for a NIN/Marilyn Manson type band and I am looking for the best console to use in the studio and at local venues. I have opted to get my own mixer so that I can...

Not sure if this is the right forum, but for those of you wondering what an 8-bus console from Midas might look like, they've introduced the [="http://midasconsoles.com/verona.htm"]Verona[/] It enough to make me think about parting with my Venice 320...
