The MCI JH-636 mixer
MCI analog mixer JH-636, 20 channels, manufactured in Chicago in 1980. The heart of our studio. It was the mixer of the mythical Xoxoa studios; In it, historical records of Basque music were recorded, such as “Lau-bost” by Mikel Laboa, “Ezekiel” and “Alkolea” by Itoiz, “Hautsi da anphora” and “Ni ez naiz Noruegako errege” by Ruper Ordorika, the three first albums of Oskorri and a long etcetera.
In 2016, we saved this table from certain death. Here you can see the restore works.
