Only space and weight. The Carnhills weigh a pound; the OEPs weigh less than a quarter of that. 12 Cartnills mounted in the back of an 8 into 2 mixer is a lot of heavy steel. It is interesting to note that when Neve first moved from its 50mm wide modules (with internal output transformers) to 35mm modules, they had to fit the output transformers externally. I cannot rememeber what happened subsequently but some time after that the AIR consoles appeared with their (internal) toroidal output transformers.EmRR said:Is there a reason the output transformers can't be off board the module itself?
