Repair

Service for the SDR24/96 Digital Audio Recorders purchased in the USA is available only from one of our authorized domestic service stations. It is also available at the factory, located in sunny Woodinville, Washington. (Service for Mackie products living outside the United States can be obtained through local dealers or distributors.) If your SDR24/96 needs service, and it lives in the United States, follow these instructions:

1.Review the preceding troubleshooting suggestions. Please.

2.Call Tech Support at 1-800-258-6883, 8am to 5pm PST, to explain the problem and request an RA (Return Authorization) number. Have your SDR’s serial number ready. You must have an RA number before you can obtain service at the factory or an authorized service center.

3.Keep this owner’s manual. We don’t need it to repair the recorder.

4.Pack the recorder in its original package, including endcaps and box. This is very important. When you call for the RA number, please let Tech Support know if you need new packaging. Mackie is not responsible for any damage that occurs due to non-factory packaging.

5.Include a legible note stating your name, shipping address (no P.O. boxes), daytime phone number, RA number, and a detailed description of the problem, including how we can duplicate it.

6.Write the RA number in BIG PRINT on top of the box.

7.Ship the recorder to us. We suggest insurance for all forms of cartage. Ship to this address:
