getting problem with alesis studio 32: fuse blowing and blowing

[misterdem]

hello everybody!,

i've buyed an used alesis studio 32 mixing board to but i've got an electronic
problem with it. All work fine for 4 months and suddenly the fuse blow up. I change it, but blown again and again. I was wondering if this could be a know common problem with this board, and were should my tech friend look first, is it a power supply problem, a plug problem, or a deeper problem. (or should i buy another brand of mixer?)... I know it's a cheap mixer but i don't have the money to buy a better one, and this one have a lot of flexibility... So if you can throw me a bone i will appreciate.

thanks

eric

Most likely it's a power supply problem or a problem on one of the rails on a PC board. Check it for burnt resistors and take this piece of advice...if it keeps popping fuses don't keep replacing them. I had a tech tell me once that every additional blown fuse adds at least $30 to a repair.
