We are embarking on a massive undertaking - the refurbishment of a vintage Neve 8078. This project requires a great deal of expertise, but we are confident in our ability to accomplish it. The end result will be nothing short of fulfilling.

Two excellent EMT140 plates, a transistor and a stereo tube, both with remote control. Dimensions: 235 x 130 x 35 cm, weighing approximately 300 kg. Size does matter in the end.

Recap or recapping refers to the process of replacing capacitors in equipment, specifically mixing consoles. Although it can be a delicate and sometimes tedious process, it is essential to restore your beloved gear to its former glory.

🎨 At Mark1, we undertake this process with a unique blend of art and precision, turning it into a form of expression 👨‍🎨

We recently delivered a custom SSL4048E/G, with half E-channels and half G-channels, along with a customized 8-channel Focusrite rack to Belgian producer, arranger, composer, and musician Wouter van Belle.

Fully customized by Mark1 - By honouring the sound of the past and paying attention to the working environment of the present, we ensure that our products will remain future-proof.

We picked up an SSL 4000E earlier this year in Brussels. This one has a 40-channel frame. Each individual channel and cabling is put into custom-built wooden crates for safe transportation.

Some photos of the API Vision 96 channel mixer we picked up in late 2022. It comes equipped with 96x 1068L, 80x 550A EQ, 16x 550L EQ, and 96x 225L compressor. Additionally, it features moving fader automation. This mixer was previously owned by Enya, the famous musician behind the hit song "Orinoco Flow," and used for one single project. Now it has been sold to a new owner who plans to use it in a multi-studio project.

Earlier this year we obtained a rare and distinctive EMI TG12345 MKQ, which is one of only a handful in existence. This particular one originates from France.

The EMI TG12345 was a mixing console designed by EMI for their Abbey Road Studios. The TG12345 was Abbey Road Studios' first solid-state mixing console, and, unlike its vacuum tube-based predecessors, it featured a compressor and equalization built into each channel.

Exceptional pictures from earlier this year. An untouched, unused Neve 88RS console, waiting to be shipped to Pete Townshend for his Eel Pie Studios UK, securely packaged in crates. Our expertise lies in handling the shipping logistics for large-format analog mixing consoles, including refurbishment and customization.

Check out these photos of the SSL console under construction. We're customising and assembling an SSL4000G+ with 48 channels, remote patch, DAW-controlled moving faders automation, Total Recall (our new system), and our PSU.

Currently customising it to meet our client's requirements. Exciting times ahead!

Rockin' and rollin' with Gotthard guitarist and co-founder Leo Leoni as we visited him to give his beloved SSL a service. 13 years ago, we sold this beauty to him and it's been kickin' strong ever since, and still slaying it at his private studio. Upgraded with our Mark1 PSU, this desk is ready to take on the world, one riff at a time. 🤘🎸

Thanks Leo!
