Hi! Has anyone ever had their automation randomly change modes when you're not looking? Mine will sometimes decide it's in Update mode... which is a pain when...
Dave, It is on the VCA card itself. Please look at the schematic as only one of the three adjustments is for IM distortion. Now the bad news a scope will do...
Sounds like a very old console. Probably Infra red interference on the sensor. Move a few lights arround in the control room. The sensor is under the Status...
Re: your automation changing modes. I found I could solve this by making sure the auto power supply ground pin is well connected and close to the main power...
Richard, You are right on the money. This is the ONLY way the automation will work. It is clearly stated in the Manual. Good to see you are listening to...
Has any one ever removed the VU meter bridge on a 3036? (and put it back) How long, how hard verses I need to take down a false wall in the hallway to swing it...
When I installed mine it was in two pieces. I don't recall that putting the bridge on was a big deal. I think it was pretty simple and modular. It was a few...
Make sure the Meter Bridge is electrically isolated from the console frame when you are through. If not you have a good chance of automation noise and or VF...
I've had mine on and off a half-dozen times in the last year. Not that big a deal. There are 8 nuts that hold it down, and ribbon cables with connectors that...
Hi Everyone, Having a PSU problem... my +/- 18V rail AND the +24 rail are down. Everything else is lighting up as if it's fine. I tried re-seating the...
Hi Again, I looked at an earlier thread and it looks as if Alan Read has had a similar problem... the MJ11028 transistors on the heat sinks were the culprit...
I think they fail with power surges but I could be totally wrong. When I sold a good bit of my stuff I sold the last ones I had, sorry. I got mine from ON...
Hi everyone. I am having a problem. I send my 2 mix out to a Masterlink for mix down. When I try to monitor the Masterlink on the tape return, the signal on...
If it sounds weak and thin, my first thought is "half patch".... meaning a leg is disconnected on that point in the patch bay... maybe the patch point is worn?...
Thanks Bob for the quick response. Yes it is weak and thin. It's there but about 1/2 the volume of the left channel. However the deck is coming back to the...
Bob's suggestion is the first place to check. Even though nothing is patched into the patchbay, the signal flows through the normallling connections in the...
Disconnect the console from the power supply. Does the supply come up ok, and do the voltages measure ok? If not, then suspect the transistors. If it does...
Thanks Jeff, It all makes sense. I'll give all those steps a try and see what happens. Will report back so every can see the results. Not sure if I'll get to...

Which meter bridge do you have? Douglas Ferguson mobile: 512-293-7279 office/fax: 512-462-0408 skype: stillrecording aim: DaAmericanRuse -- ...
Hi Jeff, They don't come up... so I'm suspecting the transistors... have some spares on order. I'll let you know when/if all is well... Thanks for your help...
I got the free samples from them, cost me 11.00 for Fedex shipping. great deal, you cant beat it. the after market parts are pricey and dont seem to hold up....
I have been using the holiday free time to dig into this problem again. all the voltages are correct as are the grounds and the connections. still the same...
... Thank you for all who wrote. Why the former owner said that the Sony rep said it is a bear to remove the meter bridge is not clear but, off with its head...
Lack of cooling or a broken Heat sink bracket will cause them to fail. Tom ... Hi Again, I looked at an earlier thread and it looks as if Alan Read has had a...
He said thank because if you leave out a insulating washer and the Chasis of the Meter Housing is in contact with the console frame you will never get the...
Bob, Ohm out the transistors. They are Darlingtons. Also do you have Molex connectors inside the power supply? The versions with Molex have had numerous...
The first time I had this problem was many years ago, when Sony was still supporting the console, and the fix was to replace the CMB. I've since purchased a...
Tom, Is that noise specific to the VF meter bridge? I've got a VU meter bridge, and haven't noticed any noise from the automation system (though I've only...
