Hey all!
We finally acquired one, after searching for nearly 25 years...it's an excellent condition SL4040G+ from August 1998 that was filled with 32 channels and the last bucket empty. There's a few gremlins to sort out, but it's all wired up with a new SMPS that our tech designed and built and running beautifully - the sound is unreal, and we couldn't be happier.
So, onto a few questions. The last bucket came empty from the factory with blank panels over it, and I've acquired a few channels to install into it. However, it won't power up as the others do - I would assume I'd see VU lights, but I don't get that or power to the channels I've purchased. Is there something I need to enable or activate somewhere to get that last bucket to work? I know the 20v rail switches and breakers are there under the patchbay, but are there fuses anywhere inside the desk to make that last bucket work?
The channels that I found for it are three 6kG with black EQ three 6kE with brown EQ and two 6kE with black EQ.
Any help much appreciated!
Thanks,
Sig
