EMT mixer channel racked by vintagetools | VT A411
In this video, I’m presenting another 19-inch rack we designed this year. Thanks to the development of our SIM AMP 01, a 100% analog and discrete gain- and balancing amplifier, as well as our newly developed VT 215 PSU power supply, it was possible last year to revive three more classics of the analog era in a limited edition.
With the VT A411, we now have a channel strip from the company EMT in our lineup. While EMT is mainly known for their turntables and reverbs, the company also built some very fine mixing consoles. In this video, we’re introducing a channel strip from their compact multi-output mixer. This mixer was a direct competitor to the Studer 169 and Studer 269 mixers but offer...

      Take the channel out. remove the cap from the poti and try Craig Fader spray from both sides. Also try a hairdryer or make it warm (not hot!) If it moves, turn it 20 times and spray 1-2 times more. We also use some DRY air from a compressor to blow the debris out afterwards. Good luck!

    • @vintagetools
      @vintagetools 8 месяцев назад

      ANT is the successor company to the Telefunken Pro Audio division after the group was dissolved. The same employees continued to build exactly the same devices at the same location under the new name until ANT closed its doors in the mid-1980s. There were many versions of the Telefunken V672. The version with the green transformers is an early form that was later replaced by the V672/2 with the typical Mu-Metal encapsulated round Haufe transformers. The ANT V672 card is this version.

    If your mixer worked in a studio, like mine (169 ), you will be shocked to see what it is under the connectors on the main board(s), i desoldered all the connectors , i cleaned them in the ultrasound bath and i cleaned also the horrible oxidation of old coffee, water, cola (or beer?) for maybe 30 years under the connectors and on the metal back cover. I strongly advise this to anyone want to restore a 169/269, even it is a huge work….

      So true. People tent to forget that there was excessive smoking everywhere until the mid-1990s. Smoking ban in the studio? No way! How are you supposed to work creatively? :-) Times are changing. Lol. The dirty layer of smear that the nicotine left behind was death for the faders and pots. At some point I removed the faders from our old SSL 4000 and vacuumed everything down below. Yep... At least one ashtray filling on 56 faders! Be sure to clean the circuit boards!🤢

    • @vintagetools
      @vintagetools Год назад

      Hi Daniel, If you get no signal at all, it is best to first check whether the power supply is supplying all voltages. If it does you can connect the audio I/O´s and follow all signals. In other words make a complete audio test with all the in and outputs such as Mic-Line in, master out, control room out, auxes, etc. If you need to repair stuff, do the same with an oscilloscope. Always just follow the signal and repair one fault after the other. At the end, if everything works well and sounds good, you can do tests with a measuring system such as the audio precision or any other. Good luck!

    • @vintagetools
      @vintagetools Год назад

      We often ponder this question, and the best answer I can offer is that sound arises from imperfection. If we consider that a significant portion of the distinct sound of musical instruments originates from their attack phase, and then compare a simple sine wave to the sound of a real instrument, we observe numerous imperfect notches and, most importantly, fluctuations within the waveform. It is within these imperfections that the essence of sound resides. Life itself is a symphony of vibrations!
