Awwww... it's not that big of a deal. If it's like a 200B, you just

unscrew
the module from the frame, unhook the ribbon connectors, take the knobs

off,
and then remove the nuts that hold the pots in. The PCB will slide right
out. The fader is attached by way of a connector, so you then unhook

that,
and there you are. Takes about a minute.


Then do that 23 more times. g Then you take the best one, lay it on
the scanner and create an image. Buy a copy of Photoshop, install it,
import the image of the panel, replace all the ragged text with clean
text, touch up all the other artwork, and generate something that an
engraver or etcher can use. Maybe a Gerber file? Are they still using
those?

Then strip off all the paint, engrave, paint, and fill. Reassemble.


And then after you've reassembled all the modules and put them back in the
console, you discover that most of the knobs are now scratching the panel.

Happened to me with my Soundcraft 600, never found the remedy and eventually
sold the console.
