I bought a Harrison 950MX in 2015 and it has proven itself invaluable over time. And that's considered a very minimalist console (only two busses for example). There seems to be no shortage of tricks you can do with regards to routing. That's before you get into the sound and such. Workflow and routing flexibility alone was I think worth the price tag. The Audient looks amazing, sounds great and is as feature rich as the API 1608 as far as I can see. I wish I knew about it when I was buying because it probably would have been the choice.

@@alecbrits They really are. A master class in great, and minimalist, design. It's strange that they don't have the kind of reputation or devoted fan base like Neve or API because the quality is there. It re-enforced for me the concepts Brian Eno talks about a lot (less is more etc). Definitely, as ever it's the workflow like you say. But I would say I have wished for extra features like what you have on your Audient. That to me looks like a really well thought out console with the perfect amount of features but I'm not complaining. The Harrison really is a gem too.

Love your videos, love the sounds you get, and this was super insightful. It seems like whenever someone posts a video about consoles on KZitem its always "why I left my analog console to an apollo system" and its refreshing to see someone legitimately talk about the pros and cons of their unit that is still using it all the time in conjunction with their software in a hybrid system.

I think this is the best console choice under $25,000. One of the best features is it can handle two signal paths. So one for tracking and the other for mixing. This is something that even the API 1608 console lacks.

Really informative videos man. I enjoyed your overview of the console and this justification video as well, I’m looking into a console myself and the Audient is on my list of options. I like that you also pointed out the cabling costs and the additional commissioning issues.. it’s always a killer!! I think for me the biggest decision blocker is landing on something that will last me the next 10-15 years as I grow as an artist and not be something I want to sell if I get a bigger facility in 5 years or so, it’s a really tough choice because while the Audient ticks a lot of boxes right now, I’d also love an API and maybe I’m better off waiting because it’s such a large purchase, it’s a tough choice!

@@alecbrits Thank you! I agree! The thing I like about the Audient is that it's kind of akin to they style of running an SSL board.. tons of routing and mix options and a very true sound, what you put in is what you get out so you can collect outboard gear and get your colour there, and just happen to be affordable! The API / Neves are more of an immediate vibe and life of their own type sound, but way less flexible, at least on the API Box or 1608, and of course double the price of the Audient stock without any modules installed. It's a big investment whichever way you go, but I like that you've committed to your choice and are clearly making the most of it with your space, congrats!
