Max Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Anybody know anything about these? I trust UREI's sound quality more than any other company, including A&H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ELGEE Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Has anyone ever had one of these mixers? Always wondered if they are worth buying second hand, I remember reading that they had alps faders, do they feel nice to cut with? dig up and old thread why dont I lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flexinoodle Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Everytime i see these advertised on ebay they are breaking for parts only, seems weird. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Rock Well Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 I know someone who bought one off Hard To Find when they clearing them out for cheap... It arrived from new with a broken channel and he's not really a DJ and very slack so he never "got round to returning it". I seem to remember the faders were kinda average - like a cheaper version of a Vestax one, with tiny fader caps and overly larger cut in distance. When these came out there was a lot of excitement because it was branded Urei, but in reality the brand was owned by Soundcraft and it was just another mixer made from the usual generic Chinese(?) parts everything else was. Not necessarily rubbish of course, but all the people who thought they were buying the same Urei as the 70s legend were kidding themselves.

ELGEE Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 I thought as much, see them all the time at various prices on eBay (some at around a £1000 lol) and always fancied picking one up if I see on cheap enough. Cheers for the info 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Symatic Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 i had a go on one.... layout was a bit weird and cluttered, and the amazing sound quality went un noticed next to the averageness of the feel/usability Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deft Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 I recall they used to break a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rasteri Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 I had a 1601S. It had some weird quirks but it was overall a great mixer. Died after a couple of years though. As did my friends' one, and two customers. This was before I had repair chops so I dunno how easy it would have been to fix. The sampler on it was crap though, I thought I would use it like a looper but it ended up being rubbish for that (I can't remember why exactly but there was some bug in it that made it unusable). Probably the 1601E is the one to go for 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
