Every Neve console (ie:A-1039) left the factory with full documentation.  There would have been a whole book for that desk with a complete set of drawings for every module in there, wire numbers, etc., etc...

I don't know if John Klett still has PDF's of all the old Neve modules on his site, but he's a good guy to contact if you're looking for drawings.

Beyond just the drawings for the Mic Pre/EQ, and routing modules, I suppose the thing you're after is the main drawing for the desk...

Just some thoughts...
Cheers, eh?

I can attest to this. I bought a new 8232 in the late 80's and I actually ordered an additional set of documentation to be put away for about $400. Everything was in about 3-4 3"+ binders for each set. They left nothing un-documented.

I have a set for a custom 8048.

Let me know what specific modules you are looking for, and I'll see if they're in there.

I also have in there the diagrams for the console itself. It's larger size.

The console schematics themselves might not be the same as your console, but they can be educational.

An 8068 is a much, much different console than an 8048. Input modules, bussing, inline vs. input/jukebox...

Oh well... still was trying to be helpful.

I forget which series had the awful change from the large format modules to the ones with smaller knobs, etc...

Probablly Geoff Tanner might have what you need then... hope he does not charge you an arm and a leg for it though... Wink
