Hey guys, just visiting a local studios website (a competitor of mine) and noticed he said his A&H Mix Wizard 16 is class A. (preamps) I have that board and like it a lot but is it class A? Just wondering. Also, anyone know of a good place to rent nice mic preamp amps? How bout finding a good used one other than ebay? Thanks guys.

I have a chance to get an Allen and Heath GS3 for my project studio for $700 US.

Opinions on A&H stuff?

This would be an upgrade from my current Mackie 1642VLZ - how are the A&H pres compared to the infamous XDR's?

thanks,
mike

just wondering what yall think about these two boards...
eliminated the Mackie and Behringer route and the Midas 160 is TOO expensive. i do mostly hip hop productions with an MPC and synths into PT via digi 001.
any opinions about the preamps for vocal and occasional acoustic guitar recordings?

I am looking to purchase a live board that has direct outs and FX. Soundcraft Spirit FX 16 and the Allen and Heath Mix Wizzard both have these. . .

The primary function is to create a good FOH and Monitor mix. Secondary functions is to pull the directs off direct into Hard disk.

Hey there,

Currently I am working with an A&H mix wizard 14:4:2.

Now it is possible I'm deaf, but I ALWAYS seem to have this yearning to crank up the high-endon everything that comes through them, notably drums.

Is it me, or has anyone else experienced this with A&H?

Does anyone know if the Allen & Heath GL3 has the same microphone preamps as the GS3? I like the sound of these (the GS3) myself, they seem to be warmer than the Mackie which is what I've compared it with. I've found the GL3 at a price I can't resist and any opinions would be very welcome.

Does anyone know how to switch the "internal link option" in an Allen and Heath board?
From what I understand this can make the direct outs pre-fader and post-eq which would be perfect for me.

I assume that it should be pretty easy, right? Does it require solder?

Any help or information would be a great help. Thanks,
