These have a Built in Limiter, that works on the main output, and if set wrong, can sound grotty...

(Easily identified by the right hand grills, giving off lots of heat) (Built in PSU regulators)
"A" series has limiter set knobs and defeat switches, but with PPMs reading about right, really hammers the limiters
Easy fix, is back off the Input trim pots, or use the defeat switches
I completely forgot about this desk, should have said about them, to Alan B and Rob A at Brandon meeting
But Some sort of Slow AGC is a good idea on streaming, but this desks limiters can over do it, if set wrong by user
and, as its limiters, are only Single Band, (Not Two band, Like the FM and TV Optimod have) can mangle things
The Other Alice Air 2000 desks, used by Caroline, don't have limiters, only it's separate PSU gets hot and fails
Above website has spares for the Air 2000 desk, as well as other products they do
