Spent some time last week installing a replacement power supply and making repairs on a Trident TSM console at Monkey Holler studios for Michael Feeney in Nashville TN. Also performed some maintenance on an SSL4000e for Mike Elizondo in Gallatin TN. Thanks to Erica and Alex for their assistance there.
Currently finishing wiring harnesses for the installation of another SSL Origin for Vladdy Iskhakov, and in the midst of acoustical treatments for his new studio addition in Norcross GA.
You the man Dave much lov geno
Man that’s a nice room!
Busy is good.
Made it back home to TN for Christmas. Finished the SSL install for Erik Rutan in St Petersburg FL. Also stopped in to see David Hosler at his new 7 C’s guitar store location. Visited with Thomas Hughes in Orlando FL and got his AMEK Mozart tuned up, spent some repair time at Sunspots in Ocoee FL, and visited Jim Devito at Retrophonics in St. Augustine. Stopped in Atlanta GA to work on studio buildouts for Vladdy Iskhakov and another for Cheney Brannon, along with several days of SSL console recapping at Treesound with Paul Diaz. It was a busy few weeks.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all! Here’s to seeing you in 2021!
Ready for your next trip to PA

A little recapping and wiring last week in the shop. More photos coming of the patch bay install...
In the shop doing some recapping and circuit board clean up. Made a quick trip end of last week to Sonic Lounge in Ohio for some AMEK 9098i repairs. Next up, 5 custom patch bays!
I did the same replacement as you did.
Please send prayers and good vibes to Chris Jackson and our friends at Blue Sproket Sound in VA. There was a gas leak related explosion in their complex Saturday that totally destroyed their business and a few others adjacent to them. Thankfully no one was there or injured!
That is terrible! I hope everybody is okay.
Crazy,, glad to hear there were no injuries
wOw ! bummer.
Omg I’m glad that everyone was OK
Jeez!
Wow....
I learned yesterday that Mark Brunner has passed away unexpectedly. I was introduced to Mark many years ago by our mutual friend Jon Pines. Mark worked at Shure for over 30 years and was serving as vice president. I always enjoyed working at his studio (Reelsound Chicago) because it was like hanging with a college buddy. We would play records and listen to music from our youth. He was a great drummer and lover of a great groove.
I spent a wonderful couple of evenings with Mark during this year’s NAMM event, having dinner and listening to some great musicians. Traveling to Chicago will never be the same for me. Prayers for his wife Jo and his family. Rest in Peace my brother in music. 💔
Sorry for your loss Dave.
Best regards
So sorry Dave.
🙏❤️
So sorry for the loss of your friend Dave, prayers for his family, the loss of friends and family are among the hardest things that we have to deal with, I'm with you and at this time for my family I know how you feel, much Lov brother, crying is never a sign of weakness, it's a sign of the love you have for friends and family, prayers to you and Bonnie and your family stay safe and know my heart is with you, miss you brother geno
Visited another planet last week... Happy to see Michael Selverne doing well at “Welcome to Mars”!
What you DO NOT want to find in your console! They love the heat and winter is coming!
Rodent urine erodes the traces. Cleaned up the mess and fixed a few module traces and all is well now...
Something like this may save you lots of grief:

I've heard that in some cases rat droppings on the pcb will actually improve a band's sound. But I trust your expertise Dave
I pull my strips every few months, and my master once a month to check for this and my cpu battery,,
Man, that sounds like ...
Oh, crap!
