I've got a TV4 channelstrip that I'd like to rack in a preamp and eq form.

Please give me your ideas on how to tackle this.
I haven't found a schem of the tv4 yet.

Or would it be not worth the effort,
better sell and make something new ?
 
I had a few strips out of a Neve 51xx with lots of chips as these appear to.
I wound up trading them for a monitor mix console and scraping the rack project.

Just my .02 but for the amount of energy it would take to: dig up a schemo, find proper mating connector, source parts, disect the metalwork to be able to put it a non-nonsensicly large housing, building said housing, source proper PS and parts, etc., etc., etc.: you could have built a BUNCH of even better circuits. Tube, discrete, whatever for that one racking project, which is mono anyways (it would seem).
I'm not saying that that channel strip sounds bad as I've never heard it before (probably pretty modern and straight forward sounding), but, personally, there are many other things that could be way more useful for the time involved in my opinion.

Cheers!
 
Thanks for the link Rob,
and thanks for the advice Stitch,
I believe you might be right,
but the situation has changed,
I have several of these strips, and mixbus strips, and group and aux strips.
Probably everything to built a desk out of it.

Do I need it ?
Well not really, selling it and buying some microphones would be better I guess.
It's the diy part in my brain that's buggin me.
You all know how it goes.

:roll: :roll:

Did you ever get the info that you need? I have 2 of these consoles. One I'll probably part out. It's missing the meter bridge componets. Let me know if you need a frame or any more channel strips. I'll probably start ebaying these in the near future.
 
Thanks for the replys,

duantro, I'm interested, especially the frame could be a timesaver for me.
I PM'd you my email.

I did get the information I was looking for.
thanks all.
