Details

Controls: per-cassette controls vary (TG2-style preamp + 4-band Curve Bender EQ on solid-state cassette; all-tube REDD mic pre/EQ with switchable Pop/Classic EQ curves on tube cassette)

I/O: modular cassette-based I/O; example 16-channel solid-state config includes 16 TG MKIV input cassettes, 1 Control Room Monitoring cassette, 1 TG Buss cassette

Notable use: First new EMI-badged recording console released in over 50 years, developed over six years by Chandler Limited in collaboration with Abbey Road Studios; combines REDD, TG, and RS desk circuits in one fully modular system

Notes: Fits into 12U of standard rack space per frame bay; near-limitless expansion via additional bays. All cassettes hand-wired/hand-assembled in Shell Rock, Iowa. Announced NAMM 2026; shipping expected August 2026 per press coverage. No public list pricing found as of this research (order via Chandler Limited or Vintage King), so price_usd left blank. year_intro=2026 flagged as inferred from 2026 NAMM announcement coverage, not from an explicit chandlerlimited.com dated spec sheet.
