That Mark III, I really want one. :D

That is the 180 Watt version (approximately 200 produced total). I go it new in '86 and it RULES.

:yes: If I can find one like it in mint to almost new, then I'm going to pull the plug. VERY nice little amp.

Thanks. The line mixer is used to route 2 mixes. Here is a block diagram showing what is up

Here are a couple of videos of Bob Bradshaw explaining what is going on:

I've moved a few things around. The Eventide is working and reinstalled, added another rack light and a drawer to store instrument and speaker cables etc..., and buttoned up the wiring.

Hi guys,

I have been having a blast programming stuff this past week. The bad news is that my buddy's daughter, ended up jacking up my PCM-80, and now I can't get it to power up. It is stuck in a memory check mode and doesn't power up so I can use the processor. BUMMER!!! Good news is Dave Phillips of LA Sound Design referred me to a tech who I will be sending the unit to, for repair-- and yes my buddy offered to pay the repair and shipping-- He's a cool guy.

The rig is quite fun, and I have been messing about with the Eventide, and experimenting with blending processors to get some very nice layers of sound. The fidelity of the rig is such a pleasure. There is much more programming to do, but I finally have a handle on the sorting out of MIDI mapping, and using the RS10 to call up presets.

When I 1st got the rig back, I noticed some stuff going on w/ the Eventide that needed to be addressed. The way Bradshaw had the rig when I got it back, was he had the Lexicon directly under the Eventide, and it seems that was affecting the ventilation of the Eventide creating some memory issues. I then removed the Lexicon, put some braces under the rear corners of the Eventide, put one of those rack lights under the Eventide for ventilation and moved down the Lexicon. Put braces under the rear of the Lexicon, added a 2 space rack drawer (braces under the rear of the drawer too), and buttoned up the wiring a bit.

I ran out of 3M Dual Lock and need some more to affix the volume pedals, wah, and tap tempo box/power supply to the board, and then it's done.

Anyway... That's the latest. :thumbsup:
