Help needed with Machie 32x8 8 bus mixing console

I have a Mackie 32x8 8 bus mixing console in my shop for repair.

On 3 channels the lower part (HI and LO EQ) of the 7 EQ pots aren't working at all. And on another channel any manipulation of both the EQ level pots results in a high volume fixed tone.

Anyone had the same issue before? And knows how to fix it?

Random Discussion: Mixing 5.1 and 2.0 channels live

Out of curiosity, do live concerts that are broadcast in HDTV typically make separate 5.1 channel and 2.0 channel mixes, with separate recording engineers in charge of each? Or do they make a 5.1 channel mix that is automatically downmixed to 2.0? Or a 2.0 mix that is processed in some way to create 5.1?

OTB mixing. brand new to me, trying to learn as much as possible

Im a communications student studying audio at this time, all I've ever done for recording is mic the instrument...run those to a Mackie 1604-vlz which runs into our 002 factory board then into pro tools. We'd track everything and then i'd use a few basic PT plugins to mix afterwards.

Mixing Bass amp with bass DI.

If you take a DI on your bass track and then proceed to amp that bass track and mix it in with the DI, what if the two tracks are out of phase, but you like the mic positioning on the amped track. I remember hearing about a plugin where you can adjust phase by the degree for a total of 360°, but let's say you don't have this and need an alternate method. What would you do?
