OT: Probs with OB-8 (Already!)

[J. Larry Hendry]

My OB-8 is the same way.  I use the mono output (since stereo is not really
stereo).  I found that I can slightly pan the 4 louder voices away from the
mono output and balance them very nicely.  I thought about trying to find
the problem.  But, the difference is so small and so easily adjusted with
the pan pots that I left it alone.
