Challenge

This late-60s Universal Audio Analogue Mixing Console, previously owned by Eddie Van Halen, has produced thousands of hit-records, but need to be re-designed to be usable within a modern production workflow.

Approach

The R3VE Team redesigned it into a wrap-around the engineering format and put it into a brand new custom aluminum casing and added some modern functionality such as an integrated multi-touch screen DAW (computer).

Solution

This redesigned Icon of American Music History is not only working at optimal conditions, it is sounding better than it did previously ready to make more musical history along with other vintage analog gear in the Coachouse studio.
