| Oh, its an Audio Developments AD 145 Pico made in somewhere around -85 or so. The meters are Sifam, me thinks. Matti |

| I had one for years. Very robust, but watch the headroom in your preamps. I rebuilt mine pretty completely (this was in the 80s) and made it better but I can't tell you what I did. The panel is long gone as are the schematics and notes. Have fun with it. D.

| The meters are BBC spec. PPMs - those alone are probably worth more than you paid for the complete mixer. Good stuff, Audio Developments, and they will probably still be able to service it if needed. Congratulations - a good buy.

| I had their eng 4 to 2 mixer late 80 ies and have used pico also at the time. Very easy to overload the preamps at high gain settings, but I´ll manage! Matti |

| I´ve been using PPMulator software meters in BBC ppm mode to train my eyes to that instead of the Nordic metering usual around here,  Matti |

| Good for you, Matti! I did a similar thing this summer - bought a mint Revox C279 for 790£ and use the preamps direct out for multitrack + main out for live to 2 tracks. Small consoles are great fun to use! All the best - Jon

| Hi MATTI it would be very nice to tell me exactly how you will do this mod. I also own a nice, small desk, unfortunately, without direct outs. http://www.gearslutz.com/board/gears...adcasting.html Regards |

| JP, yours is so different I cannot help you. Have you the schematics for it? Acousta should be able to help you rather than me... Matti |
