Hi all,
I have a similar problem as explained in this topic:
http://forum.sslmixed.com/index.php/topic,366.msg1846.html#msg1846My console has the "total recall"and computer removed. When we purchased the refurbished console, we went discovering that it had several problems we are still fixing. This particular problem is regarding to the VCA group faders. When any of VCA group is selected in any channel fader, nothing happens. The tech who sold us the console, made a mod installing a jumper from S15e to S19e connector of the CF82E38 (VCA Fader buss card) and removing the S15e and S16e connectors (see picture). He also cut one of the PCB track wich connects S13e with S15e connector. After done the mod, VCA groups worked but not as should be. Sending the audio signal to the VCA groups, became posible, but sending the signal between VCA groups was not possible and solo/cut any of VCA group neither.
We want to fix this section and become functioning as should work. We have removed the jumper installed by the tech and replaced all the ICs on the 6082E20X card (our 82E20 card). When checking the 82E20 card, we realized that T11 (BFR39) and T22 (BFR80) transistors are missing, no transistor, no socket... both are removed from their place on the PCB (82E20 card, see attached photos).
Obviously, I already have ordered the transistors and I will install them as soon as they arrive.
But I still have a doubt with the DIY 50 pin IDC plug for bypassing the computer, do I need this plug? (I do not have any computer) should I connect/disconnect the 50 pin plug from the VCA group faders card (82E20)?
Thanks in advance for reading.
I hope someone could help with this.
Best regards.
Oihan
