Mackie Mixer 1604VZL pro, needs parts

I bought a Mackie 1604VZL pro 16-channel mixer on ebay. It is missing some screws on the bottom ''plate'', and a couple of screws on the side plates as well. The mixer is very clean, but it is evident that it has been taken apart or repaired, and all of the screws that secure the bottom and side plates were not replaced when the unit was reassembled. Where can I get replacement screws to fit this unit, or how can I tell what size/type of screws will work? Can I just get something from my local hardware store for this? Also, there are no "rubber feet" on the bottom and I'd like to replace those as well.

A local hardware store with drawers of screws should have what you need. The screws may be metric.

Take a sample screw with and find a nut to fit it to get the size and thread pitch. Then select a screw of that size of an appropriate length..

Nothing is worse than getting something that has obviously been worked on... you know it has a problem that they tried to fix and if you are lucky, they did not create others.

Testimonial: "I very much appreciate this information. I never thought of using a nut to determine the correct screw. This will be an easy fix for me!"

Just bought the mackie 1604 vlz3 mixer and cant figure out how to get sound to the main speakers, the speakers and amps are connected correctly

Simplest is to use the LR button at the bottom of the channel strips you want to send to the main mix. Make sure you set the gain for each channel in use so that the clip light just occasionally blinked then back off a fraction.
If you want to use sub channels assign the strip to the appropriate one 1/2 or 3/4 and the assign the sub to the main mix and bring the subs up.

MAckie 1604 VLZ Pro Mixer, running QSC 1850 with jbl's from main outs. I would like to hook up powered subwoofers. What is the correct pathway? [email protected]

The best way is to use a two-way crossover between the mixer and the amplifiers. In your case, the low output from teh crossover would go to the powered subs, the highs to the QSC. Use the crossover adjustment to set the frequency crossover point to get the sound quality you require.

Hello. I'm missing the bottm plate of the mackie 1604 vlz pro. I bought it on ebay and the bottom plate that covers the internal parts did not come with it. Is there anything I can do about this? Do they...

Mackie does sell parts. If you cannot afford or get the part, procure some metal and make your own. Mackie is headquartered in Woodinville WA I believe.

No volume control with 2 faders on Mackie CR1604 mixer

If all other functions work for those channels, the most likely problem is the fader itself. These can fail and operate more like switches rather than faders. Without witnessing the behavior, I can not state that for sure. While these mixers are not the hardest to work on, they are time consuming. The faders can be purchased from Mackie directly. If you need to have this repaired, any shop that repairs audio gear should be able to erpair this for you. Where are you located?
