Looking for help with Color Classic analog board
My favorite Macintosh toy needs a recap at least.
It works fine, but it has the CRT scream of death that gives me a headache within 3 seconds of it being on.
Caps on the logic board have leaked a bit, but not bad(it's a CC2/LC550 board)
On the analog board it appears the big short fat cap in the middle has leaked like a MoFo. Could that be the cause of the noise or is the scream the transformer's death scream?
I'm still building my skills on a disaster zone of an SE/30 and do not trust my soldering skills on my favorite toy.
So can any of you wizards help me with this and what kind of cost would I be looking at?

Soundminer was a sample preview/organizer/editor for OS9. I hear it was a great way to catalog and organize your samples. It's still around for Mavericks but we need the OS9 version.
Any sign of it?

Uniserver is the guy. I recently got a quote from him to do mine and it was very reasonable:

thanks sean,
I think the squeal is from the flyback transformer, they can go bad can cause a terrible high frequency squeal/noise.
would your machine happen to be a 240 volt machine?

That's the board, right down to the discoloration around the short fat cap next to the blue thingys.
Just came across that pic and a thread with it this morning...

some additional product info about v3.0: safe to say that this can serve as a verification that it exists for MacOS 9.

Soundminer 3.0 adds.....
Not content with its industry leading feature set, Soundminer set about improving the very core of their system. The result is Soundminer 3.0 (for OS9 and X)
Apart from OS X support, Soundminer 3.0 adds:
OVER 50 METADATA FIELDS - BWAV containers, ID3 tags, Scene and Reel, music fields and more....
BWAV support - transfer, read, overviews, ingest BWAV metadata, the whole lot.....
MARK IN/OUT right from the BROWSER's overview window and spot direct.
NEW VARISPEED with transfer - you have the option to set your varispeed in the BIN or BROWSER and transfer each member of the BIN with its own varispeed setting.
NEW BIN MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - BINS replace taglist and Filetracker with a ton more power.....
MULTIPLE BINS - you can have as many BINS open as you want each with their own Transfer path and project properties.
BIN TRACKING - transferred and untransferred files are tracked, whether transferred via BIN or SPOT.
METADATA COPY - now SM3 transfers all metadata (including project data) when transferring to Pro Tools or any other DAW. It even prints the scene/Reel/Notes and description in the BWAV container so applications like Protools 6's DigiBase can see that info!!!
HIGHLIGHTS ADDED TO BIN - since a BIN acts like a Database, you can now tag items and highlight, search, sort and otherwise organize elements in a BIN.
OPTIONS FOR S/R CONVERSION - select fast or high quality conversion algorithms....both built by Soundminer!
SOUNDIGGER. Yes, its true. Now you can search your database for files that sound like the current selection's spectral content!
MULTI CHANNEL MIXER - real time playback of up to 6 channels - surround formats abound.....
VSTRACK. Up to five VST plug-ins can be inserted into the monitor chain in real time and applied to transfers.
MULTI CHANNEL FILE SUPPORT - ProTools multichannel, BWAV polyphonic and de-interleaved numeric...
NEW SPOT FUNCTIONALITY. Adds, search and sort by Scene, Reel, Continuity, and Notes information
NEW OVERVIEW - detail playhead, resizable overview, locate buttons, and more....right from the Browser.
NEW SCANNER - acquires Soundminer metadata, finder comments, BWAV containers and ID3 tags....
WINDOW SETS. up to five different window sets with quick recall access.
DIRECT PRO TOOLS SESSION IMPORT - Reads all region names and definitions.
NEW PLAYBACK ENGINE - SM3 original, play and transfer anything from 22khz to 192 khz, 8bits to 32bits.....
LIVE RECORD FEATURE (OS X only). Stack the VST RACK, perform moves and have SM3 record it all...
M/S ENCODER. We built a few extras for you, including an M/S Encoder.
QUICKTIME MOVIE SPOTTING- complete frame accurate transport control of movie with the ability to synchronize with the Soundminer Browser and Clip Editor.
SUMMARY - creates summaries for anything and instantly recall it as a search option - ie. pull down of all your music categories, or list of your folder hierarchy, list of all your libraries by name.......
MULTI PROCESSOR support
LAYUP Multiple to ProTools - spot the entire BIN end to end to a track starting from a user defined point.
FULL Steinberg NUENDO support - Including spot to timeline and layup Multiple to track!
