Big Fatty

Home studios are changing fast. Many producers are ditching their traditional mixers and opting to mix 'in the box', while turning to the new wave of summing mixers to re-introduce some analogue warmth.
Tube fanatics TL Audio (tlaudio.co.uk ) have done their homework with the Fat Track Tube Production Suite. It boasts two all-valve recording channels with mic pre-amps, EQ and send, plus eight more inputs for the summing stage and two extra returns.
This tasty bit of kit will set you back a tad under £1300 and is expected to arrive before the end of the year.
