Members Pro Sound Guy Posted September 23, 2016 Members Share Posted September 23, 2016 I have a couple of 1604's laying in storage that could use this technique as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil O'Keefe Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 I think someone brought that board in and wanted us to fix it back when, in another lifetime, I used to manage a gear repair shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Telecruiser Posted September 23, 2016 Members Share Posted September 23, 2016 That's going to have to go back in the shop again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Shaster Posted September 30, 2016 Members Share Posted September 30, 2016 A very long time ago I saw a used Mackie 1604 in a store. It looked like it had also been run over by something. The faders were all bent, but I decided to check it out. I was trying to see if the faders still traveled in-spite of being bent. The sales guy comes running over and exclaims, hey don't touch the faders, they might break off and then we'll have trouble selling the board! I looked at him without saying anything, hoping he'd realize what an incredibly stupid thing he had said. He did not, so I gave him a piece of my mind. To this day, that's the worst piece of gear I've ever seen in a store, and that's not because it was a 1604. In fact, I still have mine, in perfect shape. Can't give it away though...

Members Dogoth Posted October 1, 2016 Members Share Posted October 1, 2016 I have a friend who owns one. He also runs a city owned amphitheater. He basically donated it to them as it's easier to move that their ancient Crest board. It lives in a locked room in a downtown park on a river. He says "if it floods and gets ruined..........who cares" . I've run several shows on this mixer and as dirty & beat up as it is, it always works (every channel - every switch). To it's credit, it would take a buss (or flood) to kill this mixer. Great video Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
