rare and serviced Audio Developments AD-145 Pico Mixer 1970s original vintage UK Broadcast Belclere Neve micpre eq sidecar

SERVICED recently by the developer!

overhaul, and vu meters backlight have been installed, also new psu.

wonderful, very rare, professional broadcast mixer, meant to last for centuries. they don't make it like this anymore, stylish, and very desirable.

has an old-school gorgeous channels eq and preamps design, many people compare them to the most legendary consoles, like Neve, etc, that cost tens of thousands.

comes with uk plug uk/eu voltage power supply, and a pelican case.

Originally uesd as location mixers for high end broadcast and film work in the 70s and 80s (you'll often hear BBC spec) - this is a serious bit of kit. The Penny and GIltes faders feel premium, smooth and accurate. Useful as both a front end mic pre and also for external processing and analogue summing. The EQs are broad-, there's nothing surgical here, no sharp curves that cause weird phaseyness- just a high shelf, low shelf, mid bell and high pass filter (the HPF pre transformer, so you can cut out any low end crap and really push those Belclere transformers and push those EQs for some low end weight and high end clarity. This unit doesn't have the original battery, althouh they are generally easy to find and is powered by an external power supply (included and it's a new serviced one provided by the original manufacturer). All I/O and channels / metering have been fully tested.

sold with no returns due to the vintage age.

check my feedback, all genuine with the best intentions.
