I've been using various 10XX series modules for a while now and was wondering in anyone knows the correct setting of the switch on the back of the module. I've always just went with whatever it was already set to, until I starting hearing about a "correct" setting for a particular mic. I recently spoke to someone knowledgable, and they said if you are using newer microphones, set it to HI.

I have been playing around with the idea of assembling several of my outboard preamp and EQ modules into a small 4x2 console. I still
haven't figured out what to do about the two required summing amps. In general, I am using existing modules for all functions, but summing

Has anyone discovered a sturdy, practical method to mount V72, V76 or V78 preamp modules to a metal rack shelf? The modules have a fairly sophisticated lever mechanism that latches two metal tabs behind the module face plate. Very nice if you have the matching cabinet to hold the modules. Any brilliant ideas on how to attach these units to a regular rack shelf?

Once the API is actually available, it is designed to be the master section of a small console made from 7600 channel strips. Is there any reason that it wouldn't work just as well with anyone's collection of various outboard modules? (Assuming that you wire everything up properly with respect to levels, etc.)
