Well, I've never encountered this problem, so I didn't bother.

But what's very odd for about the last week or so, is that when I turn the
unit on, Scene 1 is very soft and Scene 2 has a very high level of reverb.
When I switch the voice bavk and forth the the + and - keys, the problem is
gone. I really don't have any explaination for this, but I don't like it
either. My AN1x is about two years old now.
