This actually got here Friday, I think-but who can keep track of what day it is anymore, right?

Yes, but what is it? This is a bit of a “show and tell” thread.

The micro switch on that should be correct (assuming your switch unit complies with JAMMA standards) although the LED depends on which way round you insert the sled (again, assuming it wasn’t preassembled).

Unless you have cheapo buttons that aren’t disassemblable. Then it’s a case of trial and error, but it’s easy enough to test.

Skirtless Boss-style knobs for the mini ADSR and whatever else from Love My Switches and thumb-ish hex black module screws from Amazon.

LOL @analogoutput Oh I don’t doubt it will make a stop there. Just that it was already where it said it was when I ordered it!

It said it was from China on the eBay listing, and the tracking information showed only that it was shipped from China and got as far as “Customs Clearance in China”. Then it arrived via USPS with the above label.

So you’re saying your eBay listing said Hebron KY was the point of origin? That’s interesting.

Yup! It’s not like I’m waiting on them for a project or anything but it ticks me off a little when Sellers do that.

Yes, I see a number of listings with location just being “United States, United States” but came up with one for Hebron and one for Matthews, NC. The Hebron one claims “Delivery: Estimated between Fri. Apr. 10 and Fri. Apr. 17”.

Got this old Dean Markley Spectra PM-400A today off of FB Marketplace.

Works wonderfully!

I can’t find any info on it unfortunately.

It does have AUX, REV FS, and PA In.
I do not know what REV FS is… does anyone here? (it’s an input?)
Also, what is Effects Out for? (I know the name should tell me what I need to know… but it’s right next the the main out…)

Also, what is commonly plugged into auxiliary?

I’ve never owned a mixer before lol.

effects out goes to whatever processor/effects/etc unit you want. then the units OUT should go back into the desk, possibly on AUX if its an input (often you would have effects out/in).

Rev for reverb, FS for foot switch?

From the manual of an entirely different mixer:

(no idea if the “first detent” and “third effects return” bits apply to your mixer, but I guess you’ll find out once you plug something in)

Sonic Potions Penrose Quantizer. It’s usually a pretty cheap DIY kit, but the manufacturer isn’t currently shipping to the US. I found this one already built on Reverb:

EDIT: Action shot:

Yet another Tayda order, very small one, I think I’ve finally caught up to myself with ordering what I need soon. I have a longer wishlist of less urgent stuff that can wait until the next sale.


And PCBs and front panels from PCBWay. Really happy with the way the front panel came out! This’ll be my first Kosmo format module. Hope to assemble it tomorrow… if the solder I recently noticed I am very low on is enough to get it done.
