If they're looking for a particular 'old' sound, then perhaps. But you
could do this with an FX rack anyway - not the entire fooking desk. And
just how many studios could find full time work for a valve desk - given
the horrendous cost of building a half decent one?

Well there's one studio that is booked up months in advance that uses
mainly valve gear. And, as Paul says, there are certainly a few studios
with the TL Audio desk.

The valve sound is extremely popular these days - I wouldn't be
surprised to find that most recently released records feature sounds
recorded with valves somewhere in the signal chain.

Cheers.
