nitnitr Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I've not heard much good about the 65. As for for the amount of xlr pre's, I'm not sure. It's been a while since I've seen one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zonia_17 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I think that means either 16 buss or 16 tape returns (or both?). I think Jay Kahrs has been let back in here. He has one and would know better than I. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zonia_17 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I have a Trident 65 in my studio. It's a 32x16 which indicates it has 32 channnels and 16 Busses. The board also has 32 direct outs so whether you are using the busses for tracking or not is a matter of choice. The board sounds very good. Far from the thin sound of modern budget desks (Mackie, Behringer). The preamps are usable too sweet - depending on the application. I think the board sounds very full, if not a little too full. Cutting the low mids on some channels usually helps out. The EQ section is pretty basic (Hi+Low Shelf @ 100Hz and 10K and two semiparametric mid bands + Low cut filter up to 400Hz) but sounds sweet. All in all the console is really great, especially if you get a good price for it. If you are coming from the Mackie (as far as I recall) the Trident will be the holy grail in comparision. You can also do a lot of upgrades and mods to the console if you feel like that, so do some research on rap or have a look at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Tridentaudio/. Here you can get some more info. Best of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
