Re: Gibson Echoplex Noise problem



Dave-

Could you describe exactly how and when the noise occurs and what it 
sounds like?  I had an EDP noise problem recently that (despite my 
adamant assertions to the contrary) turned out to be partially gain stage 
setting related.  I was not able to make my problem go away, but found it 
could be attenuated by setting the input and output gain differently.
