This is just an in general post showing off how the converted tv roller stand worked. Here it is in the “ normal” spot. Here it is rolled around by the guitars I wanted to keep it self contained so I could move it easily. The only thing I have to disconnect are the monitor outs from the...

Once again...... thanks to the masterful coaching of one Mr Beats, I now have a fully functional mixer.... It's not 100%, but at least it all works.... two days before recording starts!!!! Thanks again sir!!! "whoa.....woah.....whoa......listen to the music......"

It is amazing the small differences that cause the biggest problems...... I was trying to use a dynamic mic in the line in of channel 1 on the 312B.... adjust the mic level.... and nothing....after fiddling for a while, I take the mic over to the M-106.... plug it into the line in and we have...

A Picture of almost doneness.......... I'm hoping this is it for the short term..... I'm going to put her through her paces tomorrow (I'd do it tonight, but my wife sings and I play guitar for her......) My goal was to record in February and I do believe I'm going to make it!! Still a few...

Patchbay Layout Well.....2 and 4 is what I was thinking......( I didn't even think about doing the other two)...... so I guess the answer is It's really a blank canvas right now..... as you know, right now I have the mindset geared towards operating a portastudio. Since I only record myself...

Alright..... Here we go....... Yes.... I can see my test tone with voltage on both pins 3 and 5 of U901. There is continuity between the meter ground and the chassis (RCA shell) ground.... Before I started that, I was doing this..... I learned a couple of lessons here too..... don't use...

I couldn't make it easy.... :) First I went back and checked continuity.... That was ok from P405 to R IN /L IN on the Meter PCB. I went and took the P204 connector off the the BUS AMP PCB ASSY and hooked it to P405. Meter 4/8 was working with the tone with P204 hooked as it was supposed to...

I checked pins 4 and 8 on U901 and they have power. Before I saw this post, I checked for a voltage difference with a tone sent from the signal generator. There was a difference of AC voltage at L IN and R IN when the signal was turned on (gnd was on RCA jack), so I believe there is continuity.

Awesome!!!

I hope the new year brings more joy and toys than the last one :thumbs up: Brad

One of my lots in life has been this thing called congenital mirror movement disorder. It's a fancy name for saying that if I make a fist with my right hand, my left hand will try to do that too. It's never been a big deal except for two things.... typing.....and playing guitar.... So after...

One of the other things I have been doing is building my "studio".... I say that with a chuckle because it really is a multipurpose room. My goal was to make it sound the best that I could with a limited budget and all, plus make a game room area (afterall..... this is HOMErecording right??? :D...

Well..... I'm to the point I'm almost finished with the room. I cannot thank everyone enough for their help. Not just the people who posted here, but all the people's posts in other threads where I got ideas from. This room might not be everyone's cup of tea, but it sure is mine! Here's a little...

Well..... I've gotten the panels finished.....almost...... They are functional.... I do want to put a trim around the edges to make them look better. The ones in the pictures above cover up two cable areas that I've made in a bookshelf. The Brick wall has two also: These have two...

This has been going through my mind for a while now. I only record myself, and don’t seem to have the discipline to maintain the same guitar volume (we’ll call it emotion.... :D ). Anyway, in the past, I’ve made numerous notes about the tape counter and fiddled with the faders in the right spots...

Success!! Did I tell y'all my nickname was Shakey McShakeson? That was some close quarter soldering there..... I decided to use the spare board while I start to gather the leads and tools I need to do the troubleshooting. Everything on Channel 9 now seems to work.... Now on to the monitor...

I got started on my 1st and 2nd reflection acoustic panels today. These are the ones that are going on the brick wall. They have two inches of Roxul 60, a two inch air gap behind, plus I am going to give them a two inch standoff. Since there are six fiberglass panels, I'll have these two...

Here is a picture off the original board: Good Deal!! I think I'll try to get that board in this afternoon then. Payday comes next week, so I think I'll get those leads ordered to power the board that needs fixing. If this replacement board works, I can spend a little more time diagnosing...

On the replacement board, each resistor measured 2.97 Kohms It should be a high enough resolution that you can zoom in. Just for comparison sake, I measured the resistance on the original board and they were 3.9 Kohms each, and here is the solder side of the original board I took out of the...

Powering and diagnosing the board outside the mixer may be a problem. . I don't have a power supply,or a oscilloscope (although those may end up on a Christmas list......) I started thinking last night about shotgunning some parts and had some general questions about that: 1. Looking through...
