My soundcraft spirit studio has problems:
Some lights ('ON' lamps) are not working but I've been told this is a case of replacing the diodes. Do you know which type of diodes I should buy, are they the same for 'PFL' and 'ON'?
And the worse thing is that on some channels I have to use some 'inserts' as outputs because when I plug in to 'tape send' and 'tape return' I get no sound. So I have to use the 'insert' with the jack halfway in, thus losing the high EQ (and the possibility of using the inserts for effects.) On one channel I noticed I couldn't even use this method, no sound at all.
Does all this sound serious and expensive?
The last person to own the desk has looked after it badly I think.
I would be thankful for ANY help you can give me.
