Krikor I have the exact same thing happen on my emax rack. I do not recommend you do what I did but it temp fixed mine for a few months. Out of despair, unable to figure out, anger led me and I took the butt end of a screwdriver and give it a few hits to the right of the LCD about 2 inches and 2 inches down by where the text menu printing are while playing a sample. After a about 3 hits, the sound returned to normal. If you decide to try, place a thin cloth to avoid scratching the face. I hit it like when hitting drum pads strength. I still don't know what it fixed/unstuck. It's happened a few times again, but the hit fixes it for me until I can find out what is in that area that needs a hit to get rid of the distorted hiss noise. Your could be different but mine had the exact sound in your clip. For legal reasons and the record, I do not advise you do this and do at your own risk. Good luck.

My suggestion- reseat the chips on the Audio board which are socketed. -T On Sep 25, 2015, at 8:40 PM, Jose housemusicmaker@...
