Re: SV: [akaiS1000S1100Samplers] new akai sampler making whining noise from unit

2008-06-24 by hifistereo2001

That just might be it, as the audio outputs are just fine. The other
thing is that my volume pot is making lots of noise when I turn it. 

Its definitely needs work. But the good news is that it I got it for
140 dollars with 18 megs of ram. If anything I can at least take the
ram from the unit if it eventually dies. 

It was advertised has having a new backlight installed, but it doesn't
look like it as the display is a bit dim.
