Illuminated status switch

Postby trevor » Sun Jul 23, 2006 10:24 am

I am ordering a couple of kits today and have a question about the front panel switches. I have seen the topic of adding a power indicator LED for the phantom switch. Would it be possible to substitute the switch for one similar to those used in Purple Audio's Biz or Universal Audio's newer 110 family of pres? A pushbutton switch with illuminated status?

Can the power supply support the addition of the switches for 8 pres?

If not, can the power supply be modified or are there other supply units that can support the extra draw and still fit in the CH01?

Thanks for your time :-)

P.S. Please forgive my ignorance, I am a hobbyist and have minimal experience in the form of a PAIA Tube Head and Mic Pre.

As you can see from the photos, the circuit boards are laid out to accept PC mount toggle switches. If you want to make modifications for a different type of switch, you're on your own.
