Arriving on the scene in 1988, the British-made Soundcraft 6000 recording console was released into direct competition with legendary designs from API, Neve, AMEC/TAC, Neotek, and Trident. Configurations ranged from 16- to 56-channels, each sporting four band EQ with sweepable mid-range, line & mic pre-amplification, phantom power, hi-pass filter, phase switch, six auxiliary sends, mute, solo in place, and signal routing matrix. In the late 80's a fully outfitted Soundcraft 6000 could cost upwards of $40,000 USD. Today, however, Soundcraft is known mainly for their budget live sound mixers while their incredible console history has been researched only be a small handful of studio owners and engineers (Evergroove Studio in Denver, Colorado, for example).
As KUSH Audio designer/founder, Gregory Scott remarked, "It has actual headroom, you gotta peak at +14 before it even begins to break a sweat on the bass transients. It's got zero crosstalk, what goes left stays left. The EQ is broad, musical... The damn thing sounds big and analog... I still miss the long throw P&G (Penny & Giles) faders though, they felt great and tracked beautifully."
