Servicing a sound mixer: Peavey unity 1000 - 8 channels

Vintage Peavey sound mixers are one of the most changeling mixers to service.
Service a mixer is already a challenge as we need to remove all the knobs from the faders and potentiometers, with vintage Peavey mixers is the next level as all is manufactured (hand made) with the goal of reliability, robustness and quality, not so much about easy to open and repair.
As a vintage electronic equipment was design to last, so this one even it was made in the 90's it looks as new! Please follow the video and see how it's done the most changeling parts, mainly remove the small rivets from the side without braking it and take out the top cover without brute force.
