I have a Eurorack system, and I've done DIY modules for that (through hole, not surface mount). I also built an MDRONE from Evaton Technologies, a 3 square wave oscillator standalone synth. Nothing ridiculous, but I know how to solder and test connections.

Hey
all,
My actual name's
Mike Marcus, I joined the
group because I
just bought an EX-800 (via Reverb.com). I
only started using it yesterday, so all I've been
able
to do so far is go through the presets
and figure out how to
change settings. When
I first connected the unit, it was
doing
this thing where the sound it was putting out was
extremely faint. I could barely make out
anything at all,
either with headphones or
via the line outs. After trying a
number
different things, unplugging and re-plugging in the
cables, powercycling the unit, cursing a bit,
it started
playing at a reasonable volume.
What's odd is that
turning the volume
knob doesn't seem to have an effect
on
the level, at least until I turn it completely off. I
also noticed the occasional noise, which could
be a scratchy
pot. However, when I was
first trying to get volume out of
it, I
didn't hear any scratching when I turned the knob.
My question is this: could shipping the EX-800
have jostled
it, setting something loose in
the process? Is there
anything I should
look for? Do you have any recommendations
for going over a unit like this? I was thinking I might
take
some DeoxIT to the knobs. All in all
it appears to be in
excellent condition.
I was
planning on doing the various mods (HAWK-800, AtomaHawk,
not
sure what else yet) eventually anyway,
so I'm not averse
to opening the thing
up.
Thanks for the
add,
- Mike
