Title: QUAD Comp / CF 82E26 Card problem
Post by: Nick on June 10, 2016, 05:11:03 PM
Hello everyone,
I have a problem on the quad compressor of the center section.
Practically, the pointer of the meter it goes up, and does not pass any signal.
I found that the thing stops if I remove a particular CF82E26 card.
I tried to see if there was any problem on that card but I do not detect anything.
The card is fully ricapped.
I've attached the photo of the card.
Have you an idea where i can look for such a behavior?

Thanks for your input.

Nico

Did the problem start when, before or after you re-capped it? Is it a 6K?

Hi xmax,
I don't know because the problem it's always been there since I bought the console 4 years ago.
It's a 4064 E/G.

you're just going to have to get in there and trace out the signal. where does it disappear is going to be a big clue in what is going on.

does the meter do anything with any of the controls, or is it always at mid point?

Photo of the backside of the PCB please.

And/or check for conductive wire insulation.
