Thanks all for your replies

Gary,
The gear is in excellent shape It looks like it just came from the shop!! I paid £100 (about $160) for the lot incl. a couple of mics and mic stands. (think he bought it as a complete setup orig). Don't think that was too bad a deal

UD,
Thanks for the offer .... will do

MacAllcock,
Thanks for the link but I dowloaded the manual last night. Quite surprised as to how extensive it is!

Thanks again y'all
Tony W
