    Great and informative video. My Ui24R has been working fine over the last 2 years and your video has just convinced me „not“ to open it up. It’s nevertheless good to see what’s inside and how everything is wired together. Many thanks.

    Thanks a lot for the excellent video! I've been using the Ui24r since 5 years - one outage only (related to the wifi settings) - no temp issues as it is mounted in a ventilated rack.
    This how-to is now part of my bookmarks - in case i come across something. Much appreciated! :-)

    Thank you for doing this, it was extremely helpful. I am having an issue where on a few channels, the worst being channel 14, there is a static/interference noise that is coming through the channel when there is. nothing plugged into it. It registers gain in the preamp section and if you turn the gain up, the noise makes the channel unusable. Have you heard of this issue before and have you ever repaired individual inputs on the unit?

    Is there an actual schematic anywhere to be found for this unit? My channels 7 and 17 are out. Tried all the suggestions here and still nothing, so at this point I'd like to check the solder joints but I'm not sure how to identify those specific channels on the circuit board.

    Very poor video quality, but excellent informations. Thank you for that. But I have some questions:
    1.) Does it make sense to change the passive cooler in the CPU to an active fan or something like that?
    2.) Would it make sense to update the ARM-Board? Would be nice to have Full HD at HDMI and besides that the webserver containing the web server is choking a lot. I don't know ARM-Boards and so I don't know if this would cause driver issues with the firmware or if the firmware could be copied 1:1 to a bigger/better board.
    3.) Is this only my model or is the USB-B connector very ... how do I say ... lose? If I put the cable into the connector, I can move the plug around like shifting gears in a car. I've never seen that on a printer or something else. Is it a cheap connector in the Ui24R?

    Great video. I had a question but it is about the UI16. I have a small electric derivation from the metalic parts and also thru the mics that if it touches your lips, will have a shock (small one, not dangerous) Could you point me to some solution? I already got the big brother, UI24R, but would like to sell the UI16 but fixed first, if possible.
    I heard you talking about some ground cables thru back and front pannel and something about the right way to plug the mains (since it is AC, it should not matter, isn't it?)
    Regards,

    • @nickloss2377
      @nickloss2377 2 місяці тому

      what? you're getting an electric shock from your microphones plugged into the mixer? STOP USING IT THEN.
      what you're saying is that your microphone is conducting electricity from the mixer ?? sounds like maybe phantom power except phantom power wouldn't conduct itself through the grill or body of the mic even if you had a mic in there that didn't need Phantom power. but conducting electricity nonetheless is serious. you might think it's minor like a small shock, but it's probably a symptom of something much more big that's gone wrong or will inevitably go wrong.. just stop using it until you get a trained technician to look at it. It's a grounding issue dude.
      I've seen people get electrocuted because they plugged their XLR cable into a microphone not realizing that XLR cable was plugged into mains power to power something from the lighting rig (fog machine)

    I have electrocution issues with my ui24r. The body of the mixer and all cables are frying. I've only purchased the device few months back and used for 3 - one hour sessions just to save two basic mix scenes (didnt have the problem during the first two uses). What could be the problem? I could add a ground pin, but I'm looking for a permanent solution than that.

    Hi, Thanks so much for making this video. Have you ever run into a problem with the headphone volume control(s) not responding to pot adjustments? My hp 1 works as expected but hp 2 passes audio to headphones but I can't turn it up or down, I only receive signal at unity gain but cannot control it. Curious about the usb stick control as well. It worked once for a show and no the playback of backing tracks will freeze up and stop playing. I bought my ui24 just before lock down so I do not know when the usb inputs issue was addressed. Is a replacement board available from Soundcraft/Harmon?
    Thanks again ever so much for the time put in to creating this video, it's a worthy service to a community of users.

  • @RyanHannaMusic
    @RyanHannaMusic 4 роки тому

    I'd like a little insight....what is the physical differences between a stereo usb recording mixer and a multi channel recording usb mixer? Is it a huge extra expense to offer individual channels as opposed to just sending a stereo bus? It seems that trying to find a small mixer with separate channel usb recording outputs is as hard to find as the challenge I had finding a similar mid level mixer with direct outputs for each 8 channels. I just wonder why with this product range that they only offered multi usb with the 24 channel instead of just putting the option into each. Is it a case of a simple reprogramming of a chip, or a bunch of extra wiring and work? Thanks

    I suspect a bad reset switch because I cannot get the unit to reset to its default password, “admin.”
    I am continually receiving a “WRONG PASSWORD” message and am locked out of the unit.
    Is a DIY replacement of the reset button/switch, doable, or do I need to send the UI24 to Soundcraft?
    Warranty has expired long ago. To pay to have work done + shipping to, and from, may possibly not be worth it.

    I have to repair an ui24 that have a strange behavior. It came in with loud click from ch 13 that start slow and grow in rate with time. I unplug and reconnect the flat cable from fpga board to the preamp board and I get some improvement. Now while cecking the rest of the mixer I noticed that I have no response from the mcu. No gain control, no phantom power. But the more strange thing is that ch 20 and ch 10 is inverted. And yep I did ceck if the input are configured right. So now I'm thinking that probably the mcu is dead, I'll ceck the usual things like power reset clock but the more interesting things is the two swapped channel. Isn't hard wired the input to the adc? Also the output of the adc isn't hard wired to the fpga? Thanks.

If a trace is gone, I would like to install a jumper, but I need to know a point on the card to jump to. Some jackass put passwords in and now I cant get into administration. admin/admin no longer goes. Of course, Soundcraft solves this with a new board and the required mortgage to pay for it. I would assume that reset is simply grounding a pin somewhere during boot up. Any higher consciousness would be appreciated.

    Hello, have you heard about problems with the headphone outputs? My ui24r has a much hotter signal output and lots of background noise on number 2. I checked and and cross patched without result. It seems to be a hardware fault.

    Hello, Thank you for the video.
    Question: In channel 5 I am getting a lot of crackling/fuzz at a high volume, but nothing is plugged in. This noise is also present, tho much quieter, in the five neighboring channels (4, 6, and the ones underneath and the the corners). Do you have any guess what the issue may be and how to fix it? The noise came out of nowhere one day. Started to crackle slightly and intermittently, but only 10mins later was consistent (same volume of noise at the intermittent stage as its present state)
    I have little money to spare on repair, so I’d like to do it myself, but the bigger reason is I play 3 shows a week so I can’t send in my unit since I need it to be repaired by the weekend. And i don’t have the budget to buy a second while the first is getting repaired for at least 6 months.
    Thank you a thousand times in advance!

    Hey I got question... Is there anything in here that is supposed to be held down by a zip tie? I'm guessing not but I just bumped the side of my ui24 while reaching for the power switch and heard something fall inside of it, and I worked it out to be (from what I could see inside the vent holes) a broken zip tie. I'm just making sure. I have no clue how it would have gotten in there, only had it for a week and I haven't used or had zip ties around the thing that could have fallen in. Maybe it even fell in during manufacturing or something.
    Also, do you know about channel 17 for some reason being routed to channel 23 and 24 by default even with nothing being routed to 23 and 24 by default? It doesn't say it is in the patching, but it just seems that it is from the initial snapshot. When you go route something else to 23 and 24 and then take it off (so nothing is routed again), it stops, so I'm guessing it was just a software bug.

    Hello, many thanks for the great video. I have a question where can I find the preamplifier schematic. My problem is damage to the 3 inputs.

Could you possibly indicate which operational ICs and resistors support the 3rd input?

      Haaa, in this mixer there is... no typical microphone preamplifiers. Microphone preamps is so noisy because on the input they dont use low noise transistor pairs as usually, microphone signal goes straight to NJW1195A (only 5nV input noise like NE5532, only 35dB gain...). Behringer XR have much more better preamp spec...
