Hi,
Yesterday during a session in my studio, the house next to our studio was hit by a lightning. It blew a hole in the roof and burned out the electrical wiring of my neighbours house. At the same moment we got a burst of this in our studio, blewing up computers, and some more equipment.
I had a talk to my insurance company and I'm covered for all the damage, not for the loss of incomes as a result of the downtime (no complaints, I'm already happy the gear will be replaced). I also have asked for a period of time to evaluate what will happen to gear what seems well working right now, but what could be hit and go probably bad over the coming months...
I'm still trying to get sound out of the speakers but so far not much happens... I first need to get my hostPC for the DAW back working, a new PSU didn't bring it back so far. As soon as the DAW can be connected I can check the AD-DA and console, outboards, harddrives, ...
Any thoughts and idea's on how to handle this situation best?
I'm having a good sight of this situation, but want to be prepared as much as possible for problems what might be overlooked.
