I've been working on SSL 4000 and 9000J for almost 15 years and the feel of the large format desk is really a great way to archieve a mix fast and strong. Still, I now work ITB and I traded that with the easy reacall of a mix so I can offer to my clients quick and easy revisions when asked. It took a while for me to find again my sound but I made it and I don't really miss that much. I still love it when it happens but is not a must for me. I find way more useful to invest in a great front end preamp and compressor to get ITB in a meaningful way.

(And people are paying a lot for that now. :) ) So any nuances can make a huge difference on the noise floor at the end. Subtlety really goes a long way indeed.

Really well done, subtle touches brought the pieces into a family of music. Subtlety can go a long way.
