Title: Anyone experienced in sound boards?
Post by: Wolf on July 10, 2026, 04:23:39 PM
a group of us purchased an old educational facility and found some abandoned sound equipment. some of it is Digico and seems valuable. most of it powers on, but not sure if it fully works.

anyone have experience restoring and selling these? looking on reddit, but thought id ask here.

 :salute

I was hoping for someone more experienced, like maybe someone with an electronics degree or an actual audio-engineer with professional/educational electronics experience. you know, like an actual wizard of electronic musical equipment. as long as they have a college or electronics degree, that's the kinda person i need.

Some of this stuff seems kinda worn and appears needs new plugs, etc., but the mainboards look clean. main concern is ensuring the electronics are still good.

This thread is a Skyyr troll.

My experience is documented.
450 high profile artist in 4000 concerts over 45 yrs. Also included speeches from 7 presidents and former. Consoles up to 90+ channels.

Now, to work with presidents you must pass a SS background check every time. Which means the criminal deformation Skyyr and Vraciu did with criminal doxxing accusation cannot and does not exist. So both are crimes. And since I’m employed by gov in those situations it can be a federal offense.this is how stupid they are. They should not be surprised when a county sherriff pulls in their druveway.

The thread is a Skyyr troll as Wolf IS Skyyr and in game JIHAD IS Vraciu.

My name is searchable, the FACTS exist in public view fir anyone to see.

Nothing I don’t know about a console and hiw to repair it.

Wouldn’t help you ever

AWWW hell, I’ll help you

Pour soapy water on it and plug it in and turn it on to dry it off.


Oh btw, online crimes all your devices are confiscated for evidence, you do not get them back

Before the strokes I installed and serviced MRI and CT. One of the things that would lead me to a problem with MRI was the sound of the gradients. But to be honest,
I wouldn't trust me anymore!  :noid

Take off the covers to view the boards and look for “bulging caps”.

Too funny. It says somebody had posted as I wrote this and it was:

I guess great minds think alike.
I have some vintage electronics that I've repaired and the most common issue was the caps had dried out. Most of they time it's not too hard to DIY if you can get to them easily. That's the first thing I would check.

See, THIS is why I posted here. I knew the real sound experts with experience would come along shortly!

thank you Dolby, Ramesis, icepac, and hazmatt!

any idea where I could find pricing guides for used soundboards? ebay seems all over the place
