Yamaha AW1600 16-Track Digital Audio Workstation in excellent cosmetic and operational condition.

If you are looking for a standalone recording setup with clean hardware preamps, dedicated physical faders, and complete hands-on control without dealing with software latencies or computer OS updates, the AW1600 remains one of the best self-contained multitrack recorders Yamaha ever made.
