Console automation

So, what's out there in (large frame, analog) console mute/fader automation land? What options exist, VCA & motorized faders, and how do some of the options sound? What kind of prices could I expect for retrofitting a 40 input console? Fletcher, I remember you mentioning a VCA auto system that you were impressed with the sound of. Then there's Neve, Uptown, etc...

Analog Console Modifications

Hello there,

my first post in this forum, though I've been reading it for quite some time already. The best recording forum on the net, wthout a doubt!

So, I've just purchased a Trident series 65 32/16 Console for a bargain ( appr. $5000). The console is working well except some minor flaws, which are easy to sort out anyway.
