Greetings to all...
I hope this post finds everyone well and prosperous.
I have recently purchased an MCI JH636 control console for our studio facility. It is a fixer upper and very nice but is missing some parts. Other than Blevins in Nashville, who are very good folks, I would like to find some spares out here on the west coast
Mainly, the power supplies. Now, I could possibly circumvent the high cost of these supplies by building them myself but that would be very time consuming. The other idea is to use surplus Lambda supplies which are available all over. Any ideas on this?
I am awaiting the manual for the console, so for now I don't know what the current requirements are for these supplies. There the 24, 18, 5 & 48 volt and aside from the 48 volt supply, the rest are bipolar, meaning that it requires both positive and negative voltages. What I need to know is how much current this console requires from these supplies so that I can at least power up the console to verify the status of the electronics before I spend the dollars to buy the actual supplies from Blevins or whoever. Any help on this is greatly appreciated.
In addition to this, a spare console for parts is probably a good idea and again, does anyone have one available?
Analogue is not dead, it's just expensive and thats okay. At least I can fix it if it breaks...try de-soldering a surface mount component on your digital whatever! Good luck
I hope the New Year is a good one for all and thanks for taking the time read this post.
Sincerely, Billy Yates
