Description
This is an excellent desk that has just been professionally restored by Lightning Boy Audio and will last it's next owner a very long time. 1-year warranty included from Lightning Boy Audio (Warranty details below). If you're not familiar with the Big, it's a digitally controlled analog desk. The Super True program running on an external PC allows you to access extra controls and features such as grouping, dynamics (analog dynamics that are digitally controlled), automation, and total recall aided by the voice of Rupert Neve! You can even synchronize it to your modern DAW, so the automation on the Big tracks to the timeline in your DAW.
This desk comes with a brand new power supply, built by Lightning Boy Audio and housed in the original AMEK 400 Series power supply unit enclosure. It also comes with an external 1990's computer to run the automation, dynamics, and recall. The computer was overhauled by LBA and now features a solid-state hard drive (SSD), a floppy emulator to save and open up to 100 floppy partitions (USB floppy stick included with a save-sheet printout), a new power supply fan, a recapped power supply, and a new coin battery for the bios. The computer was set up with Super True Automation v.3.5 and boots directly into Super True as soon as the PC gets turned on. Included with this PC is a brand new PS2 keyboard, a Dell monitor, a mouse, new IEC power cables, a monitor cable and extender for a 16' run, and also included is a brand new LBA-crafted automation cable.
Channel 12 has been upgraded to the max, with a full recap, an upgraded mic preamp section, upgraded modern IC's for the EQ section and direct out, an upgraded VCA, and more! Dubbed, the "Lightning Channel", it can be easily identified from the rest with it's yellow solo lights (as opposed to red on all other channels).
On the front of the desk is a custom LBA-crafted armrest, which extends out farther than the original, allowing for one to place a keyboard and mouse. The fader banks are from an AMEK recall, although the faders themselves are from this desk. The faders have all been cleaned, lubricated, and calibrated. The side panels and armrest have been painted to match the color of the fader banks, giving this Big a unique 2-tone grey color scheme.
Every single knob, button, and channel face plate has been cleaned. Every pot and switch has also been cleaned and lubricated. The meters have all been calibrated and every feature of the desk has been tested and is guaranteed to work.
The onboard CPU card had it's "battery of death" removed and mounted safely away from anything critical via tether. This prevents the battery from destroying the CPU card if it should ever leak. It's a well known issue that this Big will never face.
All the i/o cards on the back side of the desk have been tested and serviced where necessary.
The master section (Big 3) has been fully recapped, as well as the buss card, CPU card, and channel 12. About 1/2 of the other channels have been partially recapped where necessary.
Also included in this listing is a custom dust cover, the stand, an authentic AMEK Big service manual, promotional documentation, and Super True installation guide. There are instructions for how to use super true within the help menu of the software. Training of how to use this desk and Super True is available if you arrange it with me. Not pictured, but also included is a channel extender card, which allows you to remove a channel strip while still having it plugged into the desk. This can be very useful for servicing.
