There is a post about the mixer from  a few years ago, here: http://forum.speakerplans.com/vintage-mixers_topic32679_page10.html

For sidefills, can we have two enormous things of a type that might be venerated as Gods by the inhabitants of Easter Island, capable of reaching volumes that would make Beelzebub soil his pants.

Mixer is a Bozak,but what are the turntables,Lenco or Thorens?
Not sure if anyone came up with a definitive answer but I don't think it's a GL75; unless they modified the tone arm.  I'm restoring a stock one at the moment and it's nothing like this.  I was in a shop the other day and they had a Leak that looked just like it but I'd go Thorens too.

Hello,

I worked for Rank Leisures back in the early seventies. I had access to Sundown Discotech along Charing Cross Road, opposite Centre Point. They used the Millbank Disco 3, silver surface.They were called Millbank Disco III 360.
Mine got stolen. Has any one got a picture or has one for sale. Thanks. Sanchez.

It's quite funny to think that the Disco 3 wasn't very popular because nobody wanted those strange "crossfader" things, what's wrong with the rotary pots we all know and love?
And now, 45 years later,  rotaries are back in fashion.

The silver coloured Disco 3's (brushed steel panel) don't age very well, I have two very tatty ones waiting to be turned into one good unit and they are covered in rusty spots.

My blue painted one is still in very nice condition.

But I'm not parting with them. I will try and put up some pictures in the next few days.

P.S. The Sundowns were famous for their technical installations but don't seem to have stayed in business for very long. I never visited one, but remember seeing some of Dave Martin's pictures of the venues.

Thanks, that is great. I bought mine in 1973 from Roger Squires. Still got the receipt. Got a couple of the blue surface ones, but they are probably from the earlier models because the silver steel surface ones had two types of outputs, a pair of low output connectors and two high outputs connectors at the back of the mixer. The blue ones are different.

Hi Colin t
Any pictures. I am from the seventies. I acquired the Millbank Disco 3 first and then the Citronic mixer, then the Seck Producer. Still got the citronic and the Seck Producer. The Millbank got stolen sadly.

Hi madboffin,
Any pics of the silver Millbank DISCO III.
Still love them forty five years later. Sundown was a very popular venue at the time. It was always packed. It will be good to get the opinions of those who used the Millbank mixer. Keep in touch.
Danny.
