Hi guys,
This will be a journal I guess... my first complete console restoration. A TAC 16-8-2 with 8 channel extension. Hopefully somebody will learn a thing or two from my mistakes. I will haha. Deadline June 21st. I have no schematics/manuals atm.
Just got the console tonight. Fired up the PS, checked it wasn't blowing fuses, then connected to the desk. Lights on, yay! Connected some signal and tested channel 1 and master.... Sound! Hoorah.
Where to start?
Have created a spreadsheet of all functions of the console and am testing them one by one. Will upload when I'm done. I've found that if a function is dodgy, pushing the associated button repetitively while my girlfriend laughs at me seems to fix it. Then I can be all like, 'See, I told you so'.
Any one have any tips for cleaning contacts of switches and pots?
Thanks!
Arie.
