Hey!
One of the venues I work at has a small, portable system Mackie SR24.4 mixing console. Typically, we don't need all 24 channels (20 XLRs)...so the bad channel the board has never was of any importance to anybody.
I will be using the board at a neighboring venue (with all proper permissions...), and I have specified on my plots using all 24 channels.
The only problem with the channel is that the "solo" function seems to be bad. When the channel is unmuted, it is constantly "soloed", and it appears at the solo bus. So, audio wise, it works fine. But the solo function makes it a last-resort channel (talkback and such).
Here's my question.... since sending the board in isn't an option...
How would I go about opening up the board and just...disconnecting the solo function all together. Sure...that channel wouldn't have a solo function, but I can still use the channel.
Is this inadvisable or impossible?
If not, how so?
