| Content | Electrodyne consoles served up some of the hottest hits of the late '60s and early '70s at top studios like Capitol, Warners, Stax, Decca, and Motown. Now the Electrodyne Summing Station fortifies your rack with the iconic Electrodyne sound from analog's golden era. The Summing Station is, essentially, the center section of a classic 1970s Electrodyne large-format console, providing a 16-channel active summing network and stereo mix bus facilities for modern DAW-based studios. Boasting an extremely low-distortion balanced signal path for monitoring accuracy, the Summing Station uses classic Electrodyne design technology that includes original Electrodyne design output transformers, discrete transistor op-amps, and transformer control for "tight" vs. "warm" mix bus sonics.
Analog warmth and punch — optimized for the digital era
Can't afford a vintage Electrodyne console for your DAW-based studio? No worries. Designed for professional project studios and production facilities, the Summing Station is perfect for enhancing clinical-sounding digital stems and mixes with classic Electrodyne analog warmth and punch. Optimized for the digital era, Summing Station delivers all the functionality you don't get from your DAW.
In addition to its studio-grade 16-channel active summing network, the Summing Station includes a comprehensive Control Room Monitor section with Stereo Mix and Artist Cue facilities; a high-power, low-distortion headphone amplifier; a 3.5mm TRS Mobile Device input; Mono, Dim, and Mute controls; a Main/Alt Monitor selector with precision level trims for Alternate speakers; a precision-detented Control Room Level pot; and an integrated Talkback mic and CR-to-Studio Listen function. Lastly, you get the legendary all-discrete Electrodyne console sound in a compact, cost-effective package.
The Electrodyne legacy
As one of the very first console manufacturers, Electrodyne was instrumental in transforming the way records and films were recorded and mixed. Sweetwater is proud to be part of that great legacy. And we are very excited about the Electrodyne Summing Station — it sounds amazing! We're sure you'll agree.

| While the convenience and power of DAWs is indisputable, some engineers prefer the sound of analog, particularly when it comes to mixing. That's where the Burl Audio B32 Vancouver analog mix bus comes in. Designed specifically for the digital audio environment, this summing amp lets you realize the full potential of your DAW by delivering the kind of sound quality you'd expect from a classic, large-format analog console - from a compact 1U device. Built in the USA using only the finest mastering-grade components, Burl Audio's B32 Vancouver sums 32 channels (24 stereo, eight mono inputs) to dual stereo outputs, and gives you the flexibility of a 6dB gain boost and tone-enhancing switchable output transformer.

Large-format analog console hugeness
If you've ever worked on a classic large-format analog console, you've likely got that inimitable sound stuck in your head, and the results you're getting out of your DAW may not be cutting it. Enter the the Burl Audio B32 Vancouver. With no capacitors in its discrete analog Class A signal path, this 32-channel "mix bus" embues your mixes with the hugeness, impact, spatial detail, and clarity. It gives your mixes the "glue" they've been missing.
Impressive sonic versatility and ease of use
Burl Audio's B32 Vancouver gives you impressive sonic versatility, and it's so easy to use. Aside from your left- and right-channel mix level pots, there are just two other controls for each channel - a button that engages a 6dB summing amp Gain Boost, and a button to insert Burl's BX5 output transformer into the circuit. The Gain Boost endows your mix with hugeness and slam factor, while the BX5 output transformer provides an alternate tonality (which sounds amazing, trust us). The bottom line? If you want massive-sounding mixes, the Burl Audio B32 Vancouver is a no-brainer.

| Working inside the box? Sweetwater would like to recommend a summing mixer that will seriously up your game: the Rupert Neve Designs 5059 Satellite Shelford Edition. If you record and mix entirely within your DAW, you’re hampered by the inability to leverage the sonic advantages of high-quality analog outboard gear. Enter the 5059 Satellite. The 5059 gives you 16 channels — each with individual level and pan, plus insert and bus-2 send buttons. You get two stereo buses with RND’s proprietary Silk Texture controls, giving you effortless integration with outboard equipment, total control for two separate stem mixes, and the facility to dial in harmonic enhancement in two distinct flavors.
It’s a Neve
In serious audio circles, Rupert Neve needs no introduction. Large-format Neve consoles from the 1970s are considered by many to be the pinnacle of analog mixer design. Boasting the same design heritage and sonic perfectionism that went into the boards used to record countless hit records, the 5059 Satellite Summing Mixer graces your tracks with legendary Rupert Neve warmth, punch, and presence. With 16 channels of Rupert Neve designed Class A alchemy and flexible tonal and routing options, the Rupert Neve Designs 5059 Satellite Summing Mixer will take your DAW-based studio’s sound to a whole new level.
Dial in the Silk
The Rupert Neve Designs’ 5059 Satellite Summing Mixer’s continuously variable Texture controls with Silk and Silk+ modes let you fine-tune the harmonic ratio and tonality of each of 5059’s stereo buses. The Silk mode adds sparkle to your tracks by introducing alluringly airy transformer saturation in the high frequencies. Silk+ mode accentuates saturation in the low frequencies, adding density and thickness to the source — particularly desirable when you’ve got a dry, lackluster mix. Distinctly different sounding from equalization, Texture saturates the output transformers, adding sweet, musical even-order harmonics to your source material for authoritative, radio-ready mixes that blast right out of the speakers.
Flexibility: it’s a beautiful thing
The dual stereo outputs of the Rupert Neve Designs 5059 Satellite Summing Mixer are perfect for creating stem mixes, which you can enhance using the 5059’s Silk/Texture controls, then process through bus compressors or other devices via the inserts, finally feeding into the inputs of another mixer or your interface. You can send any input to stereo bus 1 or 2, and create two very different-sounding mixes from the same 16 channels. These are just some examples of the amazing flexibility you’ll enjoy when integrating the 5059 into your recording rig. Smartly attired in classic Shelford livery, the Rupert Neve Designs 5059 Satellite Summing Mixer is housed in a rugged, fan-cooled 2U steel chassis for dependable, no-compromise professional performance year after year, in the studio or on the road.
The legend continues
Rupert Neve’s 80-series consoles had a huge, punchy, and authoritative sound that defined the sound of ’70s rock. From London to New York to Los Angeles and beyond, top studios were installing Neve boards as fast as they could. By 1977, with the introduction of the NECAM automation system, 80-series boards were the main component of the success formula for any recording studio with world-class aspirations. Mr. Neve’s current company, Rupert Neve Designs, continues to advance the state of the art with cutting-edge products that sound incredible and intelligently address the challenges of the digital age. With your Rupert Neve Designs 5059 Satellite Shelford Edition from Sweetwater, the legend continues.
