Are we sure about the stands? The Marquee will  always er on the side of "NO" (No taping... No stands... No Backpacks... No Dana) I finshed the Dmic and the dipswitches are gone... only pots where the Todd Mod pots use to be. I thought briefly that I had killed it until I realized that the toddmod took place on the other side of the preamps and that I had to restore that side of the circuit where I removed the toddmod pots. The battery is charged... the meters show levels... I ready for something. I thought maybe the drummers at the Japan Festival down at Copper Square. (?)  Lets tape someone.

As soon as I find a slightly smaller value pot that'll give me more resolution... I'll test this mod and post the circuit and results. At this point it has the THAT 1512 preamp chips and NO dipswitches. What a fine unit. I also bought the Sound Pals DAC to go with it so I have headphones and an analog out.

Yep... No stands policy came directly from Victors tourmanager in an email.  Going to use my DSMs and just put them on my sunglasses.  Hopefully they will have the seats out and I can find one around the SBD without alot of people around it.

+T for the massive gear hacking.  Please keep us posted.

Oh yeah, I asked elsewhere, do you have any idea how to change the clock?  I want to go 48>44.1.

Last I heard, if you contact GP directly they'll send you a new crystal, the unit can only be one or the other however.

it has a wordclock in - you could get a master clock but that probably wouldn't be very practical for the field... ;D

Damn dip switches..... Loved my unit and would have never got rid of it if it was not for them.  Wish I had the skills for the mod.
