Re: Vortex noisy?

[Will Brake <wbrake@home.com>]

Check the unit with headphones. Make sure you are using shielded cables.
Try plugging your gear into another outlet. Is it rack mounted? If so,
pull the unit out of the rack and try it again. These ideas should start
you out. If you continue to have noise issues, you could have a bad
volume control or a bad op-amp. Hope this helps!

Be Well
