Re: new EDP question
I wonder if your feedback pot could be to blame? On my older Oberheim
EDP, it used to work perfectly, but now even if I turn the pot WAY down
it won't always decay, and when it does it's unpredictable. I'm almost
sure it's a bad pot on mine. If your pot has a manufacturing defect, it
might not be telling the machine to feedback 100%.
I believe an external feedback pedal should let you test this theory, or
for an even better test, you can probably just short a cable to the
feedback jack.
