[QUOTE="Roy Andrews, post: 217384, member: 15263"] As I said literally 2 posts above, there are NO schematics for this device in the public domain. We would all love for somebody working at a QSC authorized repair center to accidentally upload the diagrams to somewhere like ManualsLib, but I'm not holding my breath. I believe that it is entirely possible that your issue is caps related, because my first experience with the caps issue was on a Touchmix8, which initially had weak bass, then after sitting unused for the entire pandemic had no output at all & was suffering from bulging caps when I opened it. Also, the TM16 runs very hot, so if you leave it on for long periods, like in a studio or something, then those caps are getting baked every day, which shortens their working life. And worth remembering that when these units are SOFT powered off, as opposed to having their plug pulled out of the wall (or turned off via a power strip), they are STILL generating plenty of heat as you can easily verify by touching the bottom of the mixer. For the longest life & best user experience, ALWAYS hard power off & leave disconnected until actually needed. [/QUOTE]
