The clean panel I procured for my hatchet job BC3C arrived today, it has now been installed (it's the mixer on the left). A long overdue electrical restoration is in the works on both.

The unit on the left is a 110 volt model, so my theory is that it was the runner just ripe for butchery. The unit on the right is a 220 volt version, and is quite unmolested.

Here's a before pic:

I'd have planted this in recent acquisitions, but I'm too fucking excited.
When in doubt, add resistance.

Someone (it was me) had fumbled the output wiring on this to reduce it to 2 channels, which turned out adequate for my needs for a long while. Now that I'm paired up to a four track with a mindful of quad, I saw fit to undo whatever fuckery I had imposed on myself years prior and restore the proper "Program" stereo output to augment the already functioning "Audition" stereo output. This excites me, so here:
