Weird static soundwhen turning volume knob

2013-01-24 by danstetich

Hello everyone,

my Poly-800 has been acting up recently. 

As I turn the volume knob, I hear a little bit of static (almost like a ground hum). It shifts from the left to right signal and disappears when it's on full volume. Of course this is a problem when recording because when I have a clear signal it's likely that the volume will be too loud resulting in distortion. Does anyone have an idea for a quick fix on this? What could it be?

Thanks in advance!

Dan
