[cma-l] Studio Equipment Available

[David Duffy]

If you’ve won a licence and are in the process of putting your station’s infrastructure in place this may be of interest. An ex-national commercial radio presenter/VO is selling the equipment he’s been using as a home studio. (His wife wants the dining room back!)

It’s the former on-air studio of an ILR station which became surplus to requirements due to the dreaded networking. It was on air daily for about 6 years (but for much of that time only at breakfast). It then sat idle (though always powered up and maintained) for around 18 months. The group engineer who had always looked after it, dismantled everything and installed it at the present owner’s home.
  
It's built around an Alice Air 2000 - a 32 frame job which is the largest mixer Alice made in this configuration. The previous station spec'd it up with an impressive range of modules, some of which are very costly.  For example, it has ISDN, Phone, Talkback, dual stereo input modules with eq. There’s also what Alice describe as a ‘Rubicube Alarm’ (OBIT etc.)  The list goes on.

When purchased by the station, the mixer, its power supply and the various modules alone cost just shy of £13.5K (that’s not including VAT).  It's in great condition - you see some shockers available from time to time - This one was snapped up because the buyer knew it'd been well looked after.

The equipment comes with a range of Air 2000 spares.  Then of course there's all the studio woodwork and pods (one of which was custom made by the carpenter Alice used originally) the outboard gear and acoustic panels (£1,500 worth).

Anyway, if anyone is interested we can send an itemised list.
