Yes, they will...
It is as exactly what Jesper recommends: Remove the 68k resistors soldered on the channel out XLRs. Once they brought the signal down to microphone level, because of ancient multicore and mixing console input problems (this is the reason, why DI boxes are outputting microphone levels until today.)
Without these resistors, the channel outs will output a line level as strong as mix and l/r out.

I bet Wolfgang, Michael or someone else will return with more specific
info about the removal of the resistors between the pin of the XLR outs.
My SDS-V sure turned vicious indeed after this tiny operation.
