Channel strip test procedure

[Brian Roth]

Would like to know how to go about testing IC based channel strip.
Basically to see if the strip is working 100% as it should and to pinpoint any failing parts that need to be replaced
I have over 24 strips to check and cannot afford sending them out or having a good tech do the work,
Right now they are pulled but can be mounted back in the console's mainframe or tested individually on a bench with an external p/s

Am good with basic parts replacement stuff per soldering but would like to go deeper and learn more.
If anyone can offer a step by step how-to, this would be most appreciated, along with any Test gear suggestions i.e a scope ?

Sorry this thread fell of my radar here....I hope there have been enough comments/suggestions to help your project. It takes hours of testing/work to fully "qualify" that a desk is fully ready for work in a production environment. However, it's OK for a desk to be used in a weekend warrior studio with various features broken/flaky ...."Oh well, I just won't use that switch...."
