The switches are the momentary ones for the 21 card status.

Pots are for the Master Cue mix amps, 10 with centre dents for the the Hi and low EQ, and 5 standard for volume. The stereo cue needs dual deck, but these all have 2-3 decks, so plenty spare. And they work with the correct knobs, so it'll all look compact.

All this is re-cycled from random SSL rubbish bought on ebay! :-)

Very cool. I'm tracking down some metal to start DIY'ing center section.
Loads of fun..

Greetings all, well i have had one hell of a 20hrs. I took a journey to Nashville to get the last 2 cards needed for center section(026 cards), plus ended up getting 2 buckets with the upper and lower busscards in them.Buckets were still put together. The funny part was trying to put these buckets still together, in the back of a 1996 Toyota Camry with 210k miles on it, no brakes and bald tires, which one of the tires i had to plug the day before i left. But i shoved them bitches in,ripped my car seats and my door panels.But thats not all. I drove round trip 700 miles in a snow storm. Got 1/2 mile from my house and ran in a ditch and got stuck. So, i adapted and carried these buckets all the way home. Now thats SSL dedication. LOL... Upload pics after i de-thaw. Anyways, Andy i got all the cards you told me to get and its time for me to begin.
The buckets with the cards look to good to cut down for center section,plus that gives as of now 3 buckets loaded with all buss cards except for 1 fader card. So, Mr. Andy aka SSL DIY KING-GURU-MASTER of all, i know you have a solution. So i dont want to mess with the buckets if possible, meaning i would hate to cut them down. Maybe get some Isep rails and do something like that? I"ll upload pics as soon as i can. But its on like Donkey Kong now,and im right on your shirt tail. I have enough buckets for 24 channels and then damn if you don't go to 32 channels. Please stop adding!!!!! Your killing me...HEHEHE... But im catching up. And Andy don't you bid on that G channel on ebay either...LOL

Hahaha!!! Everyone is forbidden on bidding on that G channel but you! be a shame if you don't get it. Too far away for me to even consider, and you deserve it! :-)))

Was that the same guy from b4?

Yeah, no point in messing up great buckets :--)))

Did you get some legs?

[Subhumanrecords]

No legs bro, I looked in there tech shop. OMG!!!! About had a heart attack. Dude, they had channels everywhere, a 9072 just setting in there running, they were do some crazy stuff to it, andy you would have been in heaven. I wished you was there. They gave 8 more ribbons for the other meters. I was asking for everything.lol
I didn't want to leave. I ask the owner if I could just set me an air mattress in the corner.hehehe. Now where to start at on these center section cards? Legs? Making a center section? Damn, I don't no where to start, and I for sure as hell not going to sleep until then. Thank god I take adarall cause my mind would be in lala land..

Thanks for the update!! I'm a bit worried about the car with no brakes though!

Time for me to ship your engraved Highland Screens. Let me know if I need to add anything that wasn't in your list when we last discussed. Otherwise I'll ship early next week.

[Subhumanrecords]

Thanks Marc, I'll do the same , I have to send out a package to Mattia so when it arrives I'll send them both. My car still stuck in snow though.lol but all is good. Trying to figure out my next step.

Here is some pics for you all.

Looks like an Ultimation fader bus card in that bucket. Looking like a console now Myke :-)

[Subhumanrecords]

Yea, it's a ultamation card, hopefully it will still work. Looking at connector from 1st bucket, it seems it won't connect to the 2nd bucket fader card. Am I missing something or just get another fader card?

[sintech]

Not sure Myke, but you'll need to make that connection for VCA groups

[Subhumanrecords]

Dammit man, I'll search for a regular fader buss card. Just can't trust no one these days. I'm on the hunt..lol
