I sympathize...
I have the "pops and Clicks " thing happen on my AN1x, but it seems to only happen
when I have certain patches selected at shutdown (and hence power up).
I haven't noticed any fading, distortion or anything on my outputs.
But I never saw your reply (maybe I missed it) about if you had tried a system reset to go back to factory settings. This is a really great thing to try when things just seem all screwed up. There may be global settings, or local ones screwing it up, but a sys reset ought to get things at least to a known state. Plus...if you are hesitating because you don't want to lose all the presets, I would bet that if you send it in there is a good chance it will return with all factory presets again...
I sympathize...there are pieces of equipment I would hate to lose even for a little while, but if you use the absence to advantage you could find yourself getting out of a rut. I mean...right now the weather is too warm in my home studio to record, and I am using the time to do the stuff I always mean to....like really working on lyrics, and simple songwriting. Too often I jam on the recorder and come up with something but it isn't structured enough....but I take this opportunity to get better at that.
Try working on some killer drums, or bass, so you got lots of great stuff to work with when you get the An1x back!
Good luck!
