My mp1 classic tubes are not heating up like they should. If I remove one the current is almost enough to make the filiments glow. My voltage is not stable and not enough to get the tubes operating. I traced the power and it originates in the power section being fed by a power transistor with a resistor between them. Then it gets power from somewhere after that. A schematic would help . The mp1 power to the filiments is unregulated 8 volt so different from my setup.
I am hooked on the brown sound that my old jmp1 doesn't have so I need to fix this and they are not to popularge or everyone is keeping theres. $500 on ebay is to much. I ordered the tip31 transistor and the voltage regulators and some new caps for the power section so I can try and fix it in the dark
Sounds like an MDRT tranny upgrade may help ? (http://www.marshalljmpmodshop.net/miscellaneous_parts_and_replacement_tubes.htm)
Plenty of schematics here if you look (http://adadepot.com/index.php?topic=148.30), also some good mods for MP1, depending what you want it to do.
The MDRT doesn't work in the classic.
About your classic,do you get a steady 5V?
All of the MP1 Classic schematics can be downloaded from
www.lydian.ca/ADA_MP1.html
So, I downloaded all the 'parts' to that multipart archive, but have so far been unsuccessful in extracting the ZIP. Grrrrrrr...
I'll keep scouring the web, it has to be out there somewhere
I feel ya bro.. I got four files to open. Main and Tube board component layouts and some notes. I couldnt get the schematic pdf to open.
ADA MP1 Classic - 1. Schematics :metal:
ADA MP1 Classic - 1. Assembly & Test :metal:

.. and no, I can't count. :facepalm:
YYYyeeeeeaahhh! Go Sparker!!
Thanks buddy, I'll get these in their proper spots in the Vault. Woot!!
Hellz Yea!
Wow what a mess of shit on that Tube Board lol. IC's everywhere.
What's an IC?
Integrated Circuitboard? Iced Cucumbers? Ineligible Coupons? Ignorant Concubines? I could keep going...
UPDATE: The Vault has been updated to include all the stuff Sparker sent. Thank You SPARKER!! :banana-trip: :banana-dance: O0 :metal: :banana-rock: :banana-guitar: :poop: :ada-big: :cheers:
Like I said, schematics make no sense to me...please let me know if I have too many files in there - like if I need to delete something extraneous. :thumb-up:
lol... "Water?... like from the toilet?"
