Hi.
Did not see this thread until today!
I own 2 vintage Cadac consoles, both with the 320 style input modules, one small and one bigger one.
The console that your father used to own i believe is the one that Schmitronic had for sale a couple of years ago.
I was going to buy it but a "friend" talked me out of it since he told me that the Gyrators in the Eq was impossible to replace.
Little did I know then that Cadac had made consoles with real inductors and that this desk had them, both in the imput channels but also in all the returns wich had full Eq.
The console was originally for sale as low as 5000 euro, but it was a wreck with no stand or power supplies but would not have been impossible to get going.
About a year later I was in the shop and asked if they still had the console I was told that they sold it the week before to someone outside of Europe.
By chance I saw one of the modules sitting on a bech and had a look, I was not to happy to see that the module had real inductors and I understood what a mistake I had made.
Just the channels from that desk would have been worth alot more than the 6500 euro that the desk finally sold for.
Anyway, I am now the happy owner of two other restoration projects.
One of them a big 28 channel inline type console that came from Italy, see below.
But that is another story!
