 | Soundcraft 1624 or Not? Hi Folks I recently inherited an old Soundcraft desk, and am having some trouble identifying its model number. The clues are as follows: 24 mono channels 6101's master section 6110 16 buss on 8x 6111's comprehensive bantam patchbay 16 bargraph meters, 2 VU needle style meters All EDAC connectors on the rear for 64 tielines SIP, but no SFE buttons. It has one identifying sticker - which states MX616P followed by a serial number, underneath. I thought it was a 1624, but the manual PDF I have does not document 6101's, but something else entirely with 2 mute busses and SFE buttons... Can anyone help? I need a service manual/operation manual - SIP leaves 4 channels unmuted on selection which I "think" is a fault - unless there is some hidden function I am unware of. Thanks in advance. DD. |

| It spent most of its adult life in a BBC outside broadcast van. It's wierd, it has tape 1-24 on EDAC but no buss o/p's apart from the patchbay. Still figuring out what I need to press it into 24 track tape recording in our studio. We have ProToolsHD but love analogue!! I'm guessing I need an i/o module for the back of the desk that is missing? I guess I jump the tieline EDACs via the patchbay... Dave, UK PS. Just checked your website out - nice rig you're running. |

| The modules seem to indicate 600 series, but I am far from an expert in these matters! Notwithstanding, I need to track down those EDAC pinouts. It seems to work well enough - resoldered the PSU and it's all systems go. Save for the SIP issue... 4 channels don't respond to SIP or SOLO. Its as if they are immune (or perhaps modified by a previous engineer!) Dave, UK |
