Hi guys,

I'm looking to recap a MK1 soundboard I have here (crackling audio but otherwise ok) and was hoping someone might have a list of which capacitors actually need replacing on these.

I'm assuming I don't need to replace everything and other than the manual I can't find a list of which caps to buy :(

I sent Broodwich a PM since I know he sells a kit, or used to, but he must be away or busy at the moment, I haven't got a reply yet so I thought I'd see if anyone else has done a recap recently and has a list of what they replaced :)
 
I'll message you the list later if i can locate it. for crackling audio you may want to try replacing your sound pot first (if you have another from another midway/williams boardset you can quickly test, the 3 wire pots will also work ex. smash tv/high impact)
 
Thanks for the help Broodwich :)

I've got 2 more soundboards on the way (got offered a couple cheap because they're missing a couple of parts) so I'll give that a try when they get here

If you have the list of caps I'm still thinking I should recap the board as a preventative measure even if the pot fixes the crackling
