James From Production Expert Gets A Guided Tour Of The SSL XL Desk Part 2

In this video for Production Expert James Ivey chats to Sam Bath from Solid State Logic (SSL) about the XL-Desk a 24 into 8 into 2 analogue mixer. As a studio owner who is actively looking for a console for his studio James was very keen to get hands on with the XL-Desk and see if it has got what it takes to fit in with his workflow.
Sam shows James around the channel strip of the console and they talk about its signal path and routing options.

This is the best analog console under $25K. I would want at least 8 SSL EQ's on my XL Desk. But really have 16 SSL EQ's along with using your Neve, and Manley as inserts on the mixer.

James, what did you think about the fact that there are no channel meters except on the buses?

[@terrydoylemusic]

Great demo ... pity we only had the camera sound when you were messing with the mix. This is so on my xmas stocking filler list!
