  1. Quiet is a word I wouldn't use for any of those boards.

    We also had a mixer for the 8 track Tascam that was way noisier - I remember it as a Carver but could have been a Carvin or something else - it was an 8 bus mixer made specifically for 8 track recording. Any of you "experienced" guys remember a mixer like that? The Peavey has transformer inputs and outputs if i remember correctly. The "recording mixer" had op-amp inputs that were really noisy :freak:.

  2. The Mark IV board was Peavey's best attempt but had all kinds of problems due to the style of construction and they were pretty clunky too. Way better than the Mark III which was an embarrassment to the audio world. The Mark VIII was a pretty good board, but not viable at the price point and reputation Peavey earned at that time.

    I've gotta pull the Mark II MC-16 out of the barn some day and see if it still works. I remember it being stupid big&heavy (or at least the case is) but quiet and reliable - gotta love that spring reverb :lol:!
