DIY 33609
A Neve 33609 is born. 10000 thanks to Igor (tech-genius) for the pcbs and for all the group-diy guys! Got me some old Belclere trannys on the inputT1 & int.T2 and Carnhills on the output. Aiai, I still cannon believe how unbelievable cool it sounds, and how veritable it is.

homebuilt vacuum tube compressor
Fuck I'm starting to get fat from sitting here doing electronics all day. So I decided that I'd rather spend some time on an update than soldering and crying, picking at the scabs around my genitals. Here is my new home assembled compressor. Sidechain for lowend and saturation control build in. Thanks to everyone at the prodigy-pro forum for valuable info and inspiration

RAYTHEON RL-10
The tolerance for electrical-noise is low in the world of filmmusic (where I do most of my studiowork) so if I'm gonna use old equipment, then they need to be pretty clean sounding. The hum in my Raytheon RL-10 has been growing quite annoying, and therefore it hasn't been used much. So I gave it a shot. Here's some pics of how it came out. All the parts that could be changed, was changed with newer and better parts. The rotary switches was cleaned with a supersonic cleaner and all the cables was changed and got earth-shield. This was my first compressor-tubeunit repair project. The next time I work on it, I will hope to be skilled enough to swap tubes, and to improve the circuit. And not just swapping parts with newer ones. Ugh... so much to learn...
