find mods.

Cool site and Ward Beck's are cool consoles. I bet that Plancke guy
even has WBS underwear, he's a big proponent so it was not a suprise
to see him as a member.

Nope, but I've got some Hanes underwear that's cool enough. It keeps
me warm during those cold Canadian winters.

Say are there any more of those CBC studios wanting to get rid of
their old Ward Becks?

I think it's pretty much all been cleared out. Plenty of TV stations
have this stuff laying around though.

Man you Canadians are crazy though, hauling that console back in an
open bed pickup wrapped in plastic? (see the pics on the site)

Well when I moved it it rained on the way down to regina (3 hour drive) and
on the way back it didint rain (we lucked out) Total moving costs...$120
(mostly gas and beer)

If I bought a console that nice I'd be picking it up in an armored
truck g.

Why? the thing is allready built like a tank. All the modules were pulled
wrapped and hauled in a nice car...and the frame was hauled in the truck.

Yes, but I have my name with a sold sticker attached to them

Are you still having problems with your M472 Modules? I may be interested
in trading something for them. They are **** I agree...but the reason they
suck is that they created an M472A module (a stereo version of the M472) so
they scaled down the quality and shrunk everything to fit 2 channels on 1
board....that also explains why they are unbalanced.

Contact Cory at he may have the frame from an L2042
sitting around.
http://www.kuzub.com/WBSPS/Consoles/...rdbeck%206.jpg He wanted
$1000 Canadian last time I talked to him.

It was the first console I ever worked on...and the gutted it and sold it
for modules.

In a few months I may have a console ready for scrap. I plan to keep the
modules gut the electronics and scale it down to 2 portable 8 channel
mixers.

I am still looking for metalwork! If you see a console being scrapped,
let me know! I want maybe 20 slots of metalwork!

Sorry, that was ulysses not Analogeezer

I've got a pair of M472 EQs, which I assume would have been used in a
console right below those M470A mic preamps. I bought them on Ebay
when I was young and foolish. They were only a hundred bucks. When I
got them and saw what was in them, I lost interest. They've been
sitting on the shelf for a couple years and I never got around to
firing them up. They want a bipolar 25V supply and they have 201 and
LM1458 op-amps in them. I would expect the preamps to be similar. I
would get around to powering them up, but since they're a different
form factor than the other EQs I just got (API and similar) I may not
get around to it. I just can't see getting motivated to build a rack
and a power supply for these things.
