eh.. what is Recapping ?
That's why i asked, i thought soxstatic said:What mshilarious said There are definately things that any user to do on their own concerning maintenance. Recapping is one that really should be done by a pro though. It requires a lot of really touchy soldering that can absolutely destory a console if proper care and technique are not used..
That's What I'm hearingxstatic said:Old caps can make preamps noisier, have less gain, and more "dull" sounding
That's cleaning rightxstatic said:Lubrication type maintenance is not very complicated. It does not have to be done too often
xstatic said:You will have to call someone who does it, I really don't know. I haven't kept one long enough to need a recap yet Every person may charge very differently from one another. PLus, the parts for your board may be either more or less than others. Also, your console may not have as many caps as one like mine (TONS of caps).
mshilarious said:An A&H board? If it's anything like recent vintage ones, not too many caps, and they are standard parts.
A&H has lots of old schemos on their site, that would give you a starting point. Or email them if it's not up.
