Allen & Heath make sexy mixers and a number of famous names, including Pink Floyd and the Who, have twiddled the knobs of more than one of their handmade consoles.

It appears, however, because each devices uses old-timey tubes and contains some lead, Allen & Heath might have to stop producing some of their more famous models. Thanks to the England’s Reduction of Hazardous Substances Act—originally designed to prevent unscrupulous junk vendors from dumping loads of toxic crap on an unsuspecting public—these classics will probably go the way of the dodo.
