There are a couple on eBay. One is $5500 bucks, supposedly in great shape. Another one is available in the Austin area. Supposedly the one used to record the Bill Medley/Jennifer Warnes tune "The Time of My Life".

Run, don't walk, away from that console. While I am certainly glad that Jeep Harned made consoles and tape machines that had a tremendous influence on signal flow design, there is a very good reason why vintage Neves are sought after and vintage MCIs are not (e.g. too many crappy op-amps).

Cheers,

Alan Tomlinson

hey tedster,

yes i saw the pics on ebay,the one we have is exactly the same except it is in disrepair,we are looking to get about half that price

i work with the engineer who recorded the Low Budget album on our console..I think the albums recorded on these old boards make them more of a collectors item than an actual tool
