THE BASIC DESK IS 40 CHANNELS ASSIGNABLE TO A 32 BUS OUTPUT. THE ENTIRE CONSOLE HAS A CUSTOM OAK TRIM. THE CONSOLE SITS ON A STEEL FRAME WHICH CAN BE DISASSEMBLED FOR TRANSPORT. THIS CONSOLE WAS THE TASCAM VERSION OF THE SSL 4048. OPERATES IN MUCH THE SAME FASHION WITH MANY OF THE SAME FEATURES. THERE ARE THREE MUTE GROUPS AND AUTOMATION CAN BE RETROFITTED TO THE CONSOLE.

A BRIEF HISTORY: THIS CONSOLE WAS PURCHASED FROM GUITARIST MATT TALBOTT OF HUM. HE USED IT IN HIS CHAMPAIGN IL. STUDIO. THE CONSOLE WAS MAINTAINED BY ANALOG OUTFITTERS IN CHAMPAIGN IL.

IN AN EMAIL CONVERSATION WITH FORMER TASCAM EMPLOYEE PAUL L. I LEARNED THIS DESK WAS DESIGNED BY TASCAM TO REFLECT THE BEST ELEMENTS OF THE SSL 4048, IS DESIGNED TO ACCEPT A TASCAM AUTOMATION PACKAGE, AND SPORTED A MSRP OF $150,000 THE CONSOLE'S ORIGINAL OWNER WAS AN ADVERTISING AGENCY. THIS ACCOUNTS FOR THE CLUSTER OF SWITCHES IN THE MAINS SECTION ABOVE THE BOLSTER. TALBOTT WAS THE SECOND OWNER.

THIS DESK IS CURRENTLY IN OPERATION IN A STUDIO. PLEASE ASK ANY QUESTION(S) AND I WILL ANSWER TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY. LOCAL PICKUP ENCOURAGED, OR SHIPPING WITH A FREIGHT SERVICE. THIS IS ON THE GROUND FLOOR, NO STEPS.
