d8b Forum

I will replace the original switched 5v psu with Mean Well RS 150-5.

Did you check it's output before you change it?

I only have a multimeter so i can't see that much. I can't see the voltage and current under max load. I've got it new for 20$. If it doesn't help there is just one thing left to replace. The 120v transformer hasn't anything to do about my problem. One thing is for sure I've learned a lot about the d8b on the way. Now I know that it isn't that hard to replace motherboard to a completely different and make it work, and the fader problems people often have is sometimes bad filtering in the psu... and more. 0ne of my faderbanks broke down after trying the bad psu on a fully working console.

A multimeter should let you see 5v's?

Yes, but ill just replace it and we will see if that's the problem.... I'll be back

I re connected the old one and it's going up and down from 0-3V so now I really know what's wrong.
I'm still waiting for my new one. It's not so strange the console is behaving crazy.

Yes, yes, yes....
Replaced the 5v switched psu... and now up and running again.... I was right once again about this d8b thing...

Cheers Boss!

Glade you back up and running
