Hi Everyone, it has been a while since I joined any forums or user groups, but I just acquired a gorgeous mx-2424 hdr to pair with my 1992 Soundcraft Spirit Studio console. I have owned several pieces of Tascam kit over the years (been messing in studios since the 1980s) and recently had a 2488 Neo which looked decent but I have longed to be able to do a traditional multitrack mix down from 'tape' back through an analog board for as long as I can remember, so I sold the Neo for a few bucks profit on CL and bought my MX 2424. I am slowly putting together a hybrid studio and was tired of being 'spoilt' by bad habits developed using Logic Pro DAW - too much emphasis on graphic editing in my song construction for one thing - so I was attracted to the hdr route but a little scared of editing on an 'event by event' basis using markers. The mxView software should suffice for my needs I imagine (hope). Along the road I have been astonished by the deals one can get buying used on CL (my chosen 'store') and I guess I have made it my personal mantra to seek out old: possibly unfashionable kit to utilise in the studio. I only wish I could source all the db25 snakes I need used too.. but not in my location. Recently I added a Roland R5, TC M One 'verb as well as a killer Hughes & Kettner Tubemeister 5 tube head that was listed in the wrong place under a weird heading for rock bottom prices. I don't work for Craigslist don't worry, just spreading the word.. bargains to be had if you make it a hobby to dig.
I hope to rejuvinate my recording career with the mx-based setup and the first project will be a maxi single or 5 track mini album of some70s
