4K,6K,8K Series / Selling SL613 Test jig Replicas
« Last post by mike_signo on October 02, 2024, 01:46:57 AM »Hello Everyone,
After receiving some interest I've decided I'm going to build more Test Jigs for SSL 4000/6000 E/G/G+ Consoles.
It’s a replica of the the original SL613.
You can test:
611E or 611G Mono Channels
611S Stereo Channels
611 Dual Line input Channels
611V 6000 series Channels
It will come with:
Test Jig itself - rack mountable 3U
Channel to Jig extender
The Jig can be ordered as 115V or 230V, the psu is linear, no cheap switching stuff.
The Jig allows to power up the channel without the need of the console, Every input and every output can be tester very quickly and easily.
INPUTS
OUTPUTS
LOGIC
STATUS - Change the status of the channel
MODULE SELECT - Select what channel version you’re testing
FADER SELECT - The pot on the fronpanel simulates the large fader, It can be bypassed making it unity gain or 10dB attenuation.
Balanced XLR in - Balanced XLR Out
It is compatible with both VCA and ULTIMATION Consoles
All the rotary switches are Grayhill american made.
Wurth capacitors.
The way I build stuff is very simple and straightforward, it's completely analogue and it's easily serviceable.
I intentionally avoided aving and kind of microprocessor because I want to be 100% sure that you can turn it on in 15 years and I will work straight-away.
The PSU is on a different pcb for extra serviceability.

INPUTS
- MIC - Microphone I/P
- LINE - Line I/P
- INSERT - Insert Return
- MIX AMP - I/P to the Group Output Module from the 32 Busses, Channel slot dependent
- SLATE - I/P Slate Signal Bus
- MON - I/P of the Monitoring section
OUTPUTS
- INPUT - Listen to the input signal to calibrate the output level
- MIC - Listen to the what it is being sent to the mic input
- INS (L INS) - Insertion send (Left insert send for stereo modules)
- GRP OUT (R INS)- Group output (Right Insert send for stereo modules)
- METER OUT - Meter output
- LF, RF, LB, RB - Main Quad bus
- AL, AR, BL, BR, CL, CR - 3 Stereo Busses
- AUX 1 to 4 - Auxiliaries
- AUX LEFT and AUX RIGHT
- BUSSES 1 to 32 - Routing busses

I even made a mod, that when the consoles are turned off or a power failure, the SSL computers are also turn off and stay off until someone turns the consoles back on.

4K,6K,8K Series / Re: Channel passing audio without fader
« Last post by horizonsound on September 25, 2024, 10:15:08 PM »Sound like you have some multiple issues going on there. Possibly with Ch 14 as well.
Check and reseat the cabling to the fader bus card. I've seen instances of where these drop out VCA signal, usually as a result of something being spilled on the console.
Check the patch bay. Depending on the age of your console, the normalling in rows C>D and J>K might not be making good contact.

« Last post by Tonemiester on September 25, 2024, 09:19:52 PM »So to clarify, CH 13 passes audio regardless of the fader position. When I swap 13 and 14 the problem follows 13 (now in slot 14) however slot 13 does NOT pass audio. When I select global Replay they both pass audio through the little faders.

Thanks,

« Last post by horizonsound on September 25, 2024, 12:59:49 AM »I've seen this a few times, and the cause was on the logic card (E12). BC212 transistors failing and not pulling down the status line.
The G series somewhat corrected this by using a -25V low logic rail.
