My little Peavey PV6 mixed has let out some smoke, probably metric smoke despite the US origins of the name.
Anyway to cut to the chase U22 on the power board looks to have seen better days, unlike the rest of the components the writing can't be read indicating heat was produced there and the manual is of limited help.
The power supply delivers + 15V to one side and there is an inverter circuit to deliver -15V and this is where the frying took place.
U22 is listed in the cct diagram as being an NCP3063 which is fine but when checking online there are any number of suffix's after NCP3063 and the spec sheets indicate that they probably serve different functions so I'm not sure what I should drop my hard earned on.
Any advice gratefully received.
Should add I have a Behringer mixer as well but Ch1 has developed an dreadful amount of hum and of the 5 channels it is the only one with EQ & compression, the Peavey has EQ on all six channels which gives much better results hence the desire to get it sorted.
ps. Follow up to an earlier thread I finished getting a couple of Alpha pots from Jaycar for my mates pedal steel volume pedal @ $2.95 each, he has also purchased one from Canada along with a set of strings $124.00 landed ( ouch )
