a couple weeks ago i saw an ad in craigslist for a ramsa mixer. a really cheaply priced ramsa mixer. we have one just like it in the SAC for bands. so i decided, what the hell, its $100 bucks and my current mixer sucks. so a 4 hour drive later, i have this mixer. it came with a flight case that must weigh 50 pounds by itself. i get the case off finally, and find that all the knobs and all the faders are so rusty they barely turn or slide. not to worry, i’ve dealt with this before. FaderLube by DeOxit works wonders on this kinda stuff. 8 hours later, after removing each knob and fader and spraying it out, I finally get to test all 24 channels. they all work, no noisy pots, no malfunctioning. awesome. that mixer must be worth $800.  Moral of the story: craigslist is awesome.
