Hey, Any DDA fans? I have a Q series console sitting unused nin N E Iowa about 100M from Chitown and Twin Cities. and Im not sure if I will ever pick it up as Im in L.A. now. Maybe one of you guys would love it and trade me something for it. Its just the 16 mic / line channels. 4 band eq, etc. I recorded with Tom Elmhurst who became pretty renowned and hge did lead mixer solos on a DDA . Theyre elegant sounding but they get nasty freqy mean if you want.

For anyone curious, DDA was co-founded by David Dearden who left Soundcraft to start it. He then designed some Midas consoles after Klark Teknik bought DDA, and subsequently founded Audient.

I have a friend who might be interested - do you happen to know the aux/sub/etc specs? Any ballpark on value?
