Original Focusrite Forte s/n 001 console restored channels.

2 Fully restored Focusrite Forte channels from the original 1988 Neve Focusrite company, the desk the other 9 modular Focusrite consoles were modelled after, which are well documented on here. This console, serial number 001, was in Master Rock Studios, London, and then Oceanic Studio, London. The only other one similar was at Electric Lady studios NYC. It's also currently in pieces. Apart from recapping, some rewiring and and full fixing and calibration, all the illuminated push switchbuttons have been replaced on these with modern versions. This is because the old ones tend to physically crack and become unreliable. I also made a restored 8 channel console from channels which has full grouping and centre section functionality but its owner hasn't shown it.

That is a great restoration that you have done. Do you mind if I ask what make the new illumiated switches are? They are really nice! Thanks :)
