New SSL Beta 500 Series with old E Series EQ Card
« on: July 16, 2016, 09:49:16 AM »
Hi, I have a few SSL E Series 02 brown EQ cards, does anyone think this is possible to house them the SSL Beta 500 series modules, or is the technology/electronics completely different?

I suppose it is possible to fit the cards on the 500 series, I have never seen what the 500 series supplied kit looks like but it's really all the same.
The only thing that has always been very difficult to source are the pot that are normally used on the original EQ.
if you look at a console you'll see that the pots are all multigang.

it could work providing that SSL supply the right pots, but I doubt they do..

Do you know what the kit comprises of?

Hi Matt, apologies for the delay with my reply, thank for you very much for the information.

Unfortunately I only own some SSL E Series Brown EQ cards, and not any 500 series Beta modules (yet).

I was hoping some electronics whizz might have already made one, but it seems like no one has.

I think I need to do some more homework on this project...
