Used in a smoke free studio!
All of the functions to this unit work flawlessly. The VU meter works perfect, but the light inside of its visual indicator does not function. Maybe needs a lightbulb?
I could tell you how much I paid new for this unit new, and how much more the upgraded optical card cost, but I'm only going to tell you, I'm selling it for $300, which is a f*ing steal!
