I'm not done with analog studios yet, either.
Although we have a good station ground, with this 300 ft lighting rod
out back, inevitably about once every year or so we suffer a damaging
strike.
Throw a couple 5532s in the output circuit of our consoles and were back
in business.
Reminds me of the time when we had CRT monitors on all our computers and
suffered a large strike. Every screen in all three buildings on the
complex looked like your kid took a magnet to them.
Good thing we had a bulk cart eraser laying around (used it as a degaus
coil-fixed the CRT's back up).

Aren't standards fun?
I reviewed the AudioArts Air-1USB broadcast console for Radio World about a year ago and was puzzled to see the meters not bouncing around in a manner I'm used to seeing. Turns out the USB port was glued down to 0VU = -20 dBFS.
I'm not done with analog studios as of yet. If I had to, I still could make up
some gain somewhere with a simple little 5532 circuit. But coaxing a USB UART
chip to give you a hotter level? IDTS.
