This is probably not a serious problem and is likely caused by the tolerance on the 2 16MHz crystals drifting. They will need to be replaced. I'm late for a meeting now, so gotta go, but I'll send more details tomorrow, Regards, Andy (EDP fixer) -----Original Message----- From: lol c [mailto:testtubemicro@hotmail.com] Sent: 06 November 2003 16:52 To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com Subject: Echoplex problems Hi All Its Phill. Ive finally had some time to sit and play with my EDP,and im having a few problems I thought one of you more learned users might have come across and could perhaps advise me on what to do. the problems i had so far are (in order) are: 1. Powered on and the Loop3 text just kept scrolling past over and over,at this time there was no sound coming from my guitar 2.recorded a loop with all my levels ballanced and no peaking of either the input signal or the feedback, the loop played back AWFULLY distorted, even though the guitar signal that was going throught the echoplex while it was in play mode was clean and fine. 3.Powered up and for some reason got a number 9 that wouldnt shift on the screen , could not loop or operate any functions 4.while in the middle of playing a loop i heard a brief tick,or pop sound like what you get when you touch a metal pedal when holding you guitar, the machine recorded the pop played it round a few times then just died. 5.another distorted freak out as described in 2. All these have happened non concurrantly with a few uses in between each problem that went without a hitch. The unit has just arrived to myself this week via mail and although it is not "new" it is a recent unit with loop3v5 and appears to be in good overall condition. Im more then a little worried that this is some serious problem as i have pretty much bankrupted myself getting the Plex and dont want to have to start repairing it before the first week of use has even passed. hope some of you will gimme the light at the end of the tunnel that i need Phill yours worriedly _________________________________________________________________ Use MSN Messenger to send music and pics to your friends http://www.msn.co.uk/messenger
