IndustryStandard Did you get to the bottom of your problems? It can be fiddly
DJ setups/Mixer porn/New toys thread...
Yeah. I sorted it but its all a ball ache even when you’ve set your scenes up what with the cabling. Hence my questions around wireless DMX. When I have a few spare quid will pull the trigger on some of the Chauvert rechargeable packs of 4.
Looks very similar to the mastersounds range wonder will the sound profile be the same.
…had a feeling this might happen! UA were always wanting to make these on their own.
How come they’re so cheap? 1356 € for the four channel-version with the efx.
…UA selling them direct will definitely increase their margins, their own design, everything already R&D’d.
When people are wanting £6K+ for a 20 year-old V6, the prices look f’ing great.
I am not complaining, that’s for sure.
Nobody remortgaged the house and bought an original New York Urei yet? Im sure the cat would appreciate it.
ScottBailey What is it?
Along_the_Wire portable recorder. Was originally using a Behringer UCA222 into my laptop to record in Audacity, but this bit of kit is much less faff!

Possibly because the layout is horrific?
Was @ Mastersounds’ new HQ today and had a bit of a chat with Ryan & George. Focus now on the Turntables and Audio Systems - there were some massive Clarity Audio Units in there, 6 foot stacks you could charm snakes with!
The small one I demo’d a few years ago was proper rude to listen to. Would have been a massive over-spend, didn’t stop me agonising over for months but eventually sense prevailed!
Union Audio now added Master Sounds’ valve in their shop, with 1K € shaved off the price. I really should start saving for this, it’s pretty much ideal for me. I would just have to buy a separate audio interface for Traktor.

Union Audio displaying prices in Euros is nice. They must be in the VAT-deal so you don’t have to pay duty if you import from them to EU.
Mad_Cyril …the rotary market always been like that to be fair, people trying to flog those (Soundcraft) Urei 1620LE’s for £2.5/3K just because they had knobs and the Urei badge on them… remember when HTFR couldn’t shift stock and listed the last batch for £350.
I suspect a lot of Mastersounds owners thought they could cash-in on a discontinued mixer only for UA to reissue what is effectively the exact same product weeks later.
That 4-valve UA is decent value considering you are looking at £8k+ for an A&H V6 these days.
