Producer/Artist Thomas Statnick Invests in a Neve® 8424 Console Independent artist and producer Thomas Statnick has installed a Neve® 8424 console in his North Carolina studio because it allows him to maintain a familiar analogue workflow in a hybrid digital environment. “I chose a Neve 8424 because I like using a large, fully featured console for tracking and mixing,” he explains. “Given the substantial investment I have made over the years in outboard gear, going totally ‘in-the-box’ is not a practical option. What I wanted was a desk that could cope with a hybrid digital environment by delivering a low noise floor, high output levels and a high channel count for mix-down. Recall capability and the build and sound quality of the console were also important. The Neve 8424 meets all these criteria and also allows me to easily integrate my collection of classic analogue outboard gear into my workflow.”
