hi,
i currently have an older console (apsi 2000) with plenty of spare modules. i am thinking about taking some of the spares and making a small eight channel side car, or perhaps just a smaller eight channel mixer.
i am relatively new to building and modifying audio circuit (i?ve built the standard fuzz box kits etc), but do have a grasp of basic electronics theory.
anyhow i had a few questions i thought perhaps you folks could shed some light on.
first, how do i find out what the current requirements are for one of my modules?
second, i do have a schematic for the 24 channel board's power supply, i figure this would be a good place to start. however, i am wondering, could the smaller eight channel board run on that supply, or is a new power supply design necessary?
finally, i have read that increasing the operating voltage can lead to better audio (more head room as i understand it). how can i find out the limits of my modules components (is it as simple as checking the data sheets for the components) and figure out if i could/should try to beef up the voltage.
any insights or resources would be greaat
cheerio,
n
