Product Description

This Like new API 1608 was never used by the customer due to a change of plans. This console was only removed from its crate for inspection by our tech department, and then carefully placed back.

Comes loaded with 12x 550A and 4x 560 EQs

Full 5-year factory warranty



Features:

  • Dimensions: 38" W x 33" D x 18" H
  • Loaded with 12x 550A modules and 4x 560 modules


The API 1608 is used in professional and project studios the world over, including Blackbird Studios in Nashville (who purchased the first one), and over a hundred others; from larger studios like Telefunken USA, Signature Sound, University of Michigan, and WAX Ltd ...to smaller project studios like Dan Auerbach's Akron Analog and Steve Miller's home studio. What these venues all have in common is a desire for simplicity, flexibility, reliability, and analog warmth, and they all get it with their API rig.

Numerous albums have been made on a 1608, including the Foo Fighters latest #1 record "Wasting Light" -- tracked and mixed in Dave Grohl's garage on an API 1608.
