Digitally Recallable Consoles

If you listened carefully in 2008 you might have just heard a sound - way off in the distance - as a generation of studio assistants cried for joy and danced around a bonfire built from decades of recall sheets. A new way to return a mixing desk to its previous state was born and it would save countless pages of paper, eye strain and over-extended knees forever more.

The AMS Neve Genesys was released and became the world's first fully digitally recallable mixing desk, and the recent SSL Oracle continues the trend towards units delivering warm analogue sound with instant digital recall. This modern workflow is fast enough to enable busy users to bounce between various songs quickly and provides the ability to control and save desk and channel settings (VCA, EQ, preamps, etc) via the studio computer.
