Hey,
SO I've decided it best to leave the psu's for the yamaha desk I'm reworking outside the chassis to allow more room for other goodies...
As I'm using another seperate psu for the the digital ckts (+5V/+12V) as well as the original yam psu for analog supplies - how is it best to link them both back to a single IEC socket/power switch? The reason I'm unsure is because there's gonna be a good few amps running in this beast and I'm wondering about what current rating the main power connector, switch, fuse n whatnot should be...
Digital supply is a nice switcher I picked up and is rated at 8A alone. This should be fine for eventually this box will have motorfaders, lcds (and other midibox stuff) plus the relays will be run of the +5 too. The analog supply seems ample too - 2x +15/-15V, 1x +48V 1x 10VAC. I think this is rated around 4A (sounds about right for a 24 desk right?)...
I was planning on using a 3pin XLR for digital psu connection between psu and desk and a 5pin XLR for analog supply (just need the 15's)...
Am okay with a regular IEC socket and DPDT power switch (connected to each psu's N input)?
Cheers!
