Neve 8038 restoration

[Studiomotion]

Hi. Doing a restoration of my neve console. It was missing input channels and 1272s when I bought it.




A friend are i same seat but with a 8048. So we have worked on getting 1081, 1064 and 1272s for our consoles.

Now the building starts with all modules. 1272s im getting in may/june.

For 1064 I found some NOS rft/siemens rotary switches on ebay some years ago that does the job. Palladium plated military and very high quality.

The 1272’s should be easier hidden under the top panel and all. The eq/pre are a impressive challenge but people on here do amazing projects. 8036 was the first console I maintained in my first studio gig (1976) and later I engineered numerous projects. From Orchestra, to the heartbreakers, it was just magic to tape. It’s a special console. Love it. All the best of luck.
