XITE-1 power adapter replacement

The Hipro HP-02040D43 Rev 01 power adapter which came with my XITE-1 has died, so I need to get a replacement. I did buy the same model adapter from ebay.co.uk but it was a Rev B version not a Rev 01 version, and unfortunately the inner diameter of the pin which connects into the power socket on the...

Re: Original Release Dates of all Scope instrument plugins from 1999-2009

Is the date not on the properties for the various dev files. Go to Scope device folder, right click on the respective .dev file and select properties, then look for Date Created, that may give you some idea. Worth a shot. :)

Re: Tips for buying used gear?

I would go as far as to say this forum is quite unique in the sense of brotherhood it has amongst its regular users, and I have bought and sold several things on here over the years with no real fear of being shafted or scammed. When buying, ask for photos preferably with their username on a piece o...

Re: XITE-1 won't fit rack as rack ears are too thick

My rack has this issue with several pieces of gear, but in a different way. The rack pieces themselves don't have the clearance on the *internal* side to allow all of my gear to be front mounted (as is normal) so for some manufacturers I can only mount the units on the INSIDE. The issue for me wasn...

Re: XITE-1 won't fit rack as rack ears are too thick

Interestingly, with the rack ears attached the XITE-1 does just conform to the standards guidelines by 1-2mm. For example, see https://www.canford.co.uk/TechZone/Article/19InchRackDimensions 19" rack equipment dimensional data As specified by BS5954 (1980) and IEC 297 (1975). * Rack opening wid...

Re: XITE-1 won't fit rack as rack ears are too thick

Thanks Mehdi, yes reversing the ears was worth a try but unfortunately it didnt make a difference. I was however able to JUST fit the XITE-1 in a space at the top of my Quiklok rack, so I guess the opening width of the bottom of the rack is slightly narrower. Unfortunately this still doesnt help as ...

Re: XITE-1 won't fit rack as rack ears are too thick

Interesting. Thanks for the info. Yes when I emailed Holger asking if he had any rack ears for sale he asked if the silver ones would be ok, so I just purchased them as I wasn't that bothered about the colour and just assumed all the XITE rack ears would have the same measurements and would enable m...

XITE-1 won't fit rack as rack ears are too thick

Does anyone here have their XITE-1 racked? I have always had my XITE sitting on top of my Quiklok rack stand so it never needed rack ears. But having recently moved I am setting up the studio again and wanted to put the XITE in a rack space in my (ex BBC) desk I just bought since my Quiklok rack sta...

WTB: Rack Ears (Brackets) for Xite-1

I am looking for some rack ears for my Xite-1. I bought it around 2009 and have always had it sitting on a tabletop so I can't remember if it came with rack ears or not or if I removed them and put them somewhere safe years ago. I've looked everywhere but no luck, so Im beginning to wonder if it eve...

I am shocked and saddened to hear your very sad news. Your dad was a true force here on this forum and although I never got the chance to meet him in person I am sure he was a real character at home.
