Midas PRO 04 Extensions. Technical documentation wanted

hinnerk · Jan 7, 2005

Hi !
Did buy two old Midas PRO 04 desks (FOH 32/8/2 + Monitor 24/10).
Very nice stuff. I like it.
But now i want to extend the possibilitys a little. First of all i need more
Aux sends.
In the second i want to realize a Direkt - Out per Channel alternatively to
send the channel pre/post fader to an external distributor.
Is there someone who already did this and could give some useful hints
and has got the old technical details for the desks?
I already did service on both desks (IC cleaning, Cap. replacements on PSU,
rewiring some small probs...)
Are there any further things i have to take care of?
Are there any parts (knobs, moduls, digit switches or special parts) available?
Whats about the bus system? Is it possible to use (maybe after a little change ) PRO 40 Modules in the Frame?

I know, this are a lot of questions. But i want to bring this well sounding desk to a new life.

Thanks
Henry

Just a simple question , do you have schemo's of that midas , we all love schemo's.
When yes would it be possible to send me a copy of the them , or put them on this site somewhere (ask admin where) , so everybody can tell you what to replace or not.

You could send the schemo's to htgerbenzon(at)hotmail(dot) com

I would be greatfull if you could send them

Sorry Henk, the schemo is that what i want first. I've got only the schemo for
the PRO 40 desks. That tech doc is about 40 - 50 Us Letter format.
Ive got nearly all for that desk, what EVI - Germany did have. But no
schemo about the PRO 04.. Maybe i can scan a PRO 40 Input Module Diagram and look if the are nearly same as the PRO 4.
The differences between the PRO 40 and PRO 04 are in the EQ section and
the among of Aux sends. Thats what i realize first. Will wait some days if there is someone whos has got one schemo for that. If not, i have to reconstruct the PCB to draw my own schemo for that. (Lot of work!)

regards
Henry

Hey Henry

You say that EVI is in germany , i thought that it was in canada , do you know that for sure?
Would like to know that because i am looking for a schemo of an Digitech vsc on this forum and did not get any info of it.

I also would like to see the paperwork when possible in the future somewhere on the net?

Hi henk,

here is the adress:
EVI Audio, Hirschberger Ring 45, D- 94315 Straubing, Germany
phone +49 (0) 9421/706-0

Thats are the information on an invoice i get from a friend together with the schemos of the PRO 40 Konsole. This Invoice is dated from 2001. But i think the are always there, cause the friend of mine has had Problems with his desk and did drive to them with the desk some days ago.

regards
Henry

Hi, for all of them who are interested in looking or downloading the
MIDAS PRO 40 Schemos i've got, here is a small link

www.ersio.de (have got own server on the net)

There you can either load the complete schemos (13MB) or looking what
is interesting for you.
Have got also the schemos for some older Moduls and PSUs and the PRO 40 Monitordesk. If anyone needs them PM please.
But maybe here is someone in the forum who could give me the details of
the PRO 04 ! Modules. Thats what i need..... thanks

Henry
