How to recap a mixer?

[funkfaker]

hello all,

I'm beginning to do some tech work in my studio and need to learn a bit about recapping a Neotek Series 2 console.

What caps are replaced in such a procedure?

Should I look to upgrade said caps?

Should I also look into recapping the power supply?

Any and all recommendations are welcome!

Thanks for the help in advance...

Tommy

You should look at replacing all of the small electrolytic caps in the channel strips. Also, if you have the schematic, I would recomment reeplacing all of those ceramic coupling/blocking caps with poly's.
