Re: EDP and a BIG burst of static/hiss



Mark,

Never seen what you mention, but I have, very rarely, had one of my EDPs
have a very high gain during overdub.  Straight record of a loop would be
fine, multiply, insert, etc.  But Overdub would be at very high gain
levels... producing a high-gain hiss.  Rebooting has always fixed it.

This only happens once a month or so.  I've learned to check the Overdub
situation right away when I power up to play.

Anyone else seen *that*?

P.S.
Mark - Probably because you're such a prolific list member, with great 
ideas
and a relatively positive attitude - I find myself wanting you to like the
EDP :)  I know you do, but I hate hearing that you may have a bum unit,
which is frustrating I'm sure!  Hope you get it all worked out.

Doug
