What did they mod the Midas at Columbia with?

We had a pretty fair run outdoors this season, got rained on many times but no major failures. Lost a channel on a Klark-Teknik compressor that made a sound like a helicopter on a night when while Lollapalooza was bleeding into my mix from half a mile away...at first I thought it WAS a helicopter and I was scanning the skies...hahah

The mods were done by the previous owners, who were some famous band. I want to say Supertramp. It had been setup for recording, though I can't recall what it was specifically. I think there were various output stages which they couldn't ever get working.

Oh... maybe I was wrong, and they had this live boards setup to function more like their recording board. That seems more right.

That belongs to Jack Alexander... I wonder if he has it working. Haven't seen him in years.
