X32 won’t output
Mark Woodham:
I have an x32 that was hit by lightning. I have replaced the main pcb board and now have aes working, but upon further inspection there were several capacitors that were blown on the output cards. I ordered replacement cards, but I still do not have any output audio. All of the input audio is sending and hitting the main Left/Right channel, just not actually outputting. Could the power supply card be an issue preventing the audio from leaving the console?

What if you send L/R somewhere else? Have you tried the AES port? Have you tried all 16 outputs? What about when you solo it do you hear anything in the headphones?
Jerome Malsack:
also test the headphone output near the talk back. You should be able to hear the L/R and verify a good signal from the inputs.
Brian Jojade:
Lightning damage is a tough one. There is often damage found in seemingly random places. While you may be able to get the device functional, I'd have a hard time putting it back into service and expecting it to be reliable unless everything inside was replaced.
Jean-Pierre Coetzee:
Yeah, I believe there was a discussion on this forum a while ago and any lighting damage is always a complete replacement. Even if something works no, the likelihood that it will remain working is very low.
