Hey all,
I've owned my StageScape mixer for a couple years now, and am very comfortable using it.
However, every once in a while we get a bad crackling sound (on the kick drum every time with us, on channel 1) that is audible in FOH, and in recorded tracks. It's not the mic cable, and the input trim is set perfectly. It seems like it could be a digital glitch, maybe in the compressor settings that seems to happen at times when we've had to power up the mains (line 6 brand) separately from the board, due to power cabling situations. We are able to clear up the issue by rebooting THE ENTIRE system when we notice it.
Has anybody ever noticed this glitch?
The only way we have been able to be sure it wouldn't happen is to power up all system components simultaneously. Unless we just get lucky when we do it that way...
This is a very bad glitch! It completely ruins otherwise great recordings of gigs or rehearsals. And it freaks me out that it can be audible in FOH, when we are mixing from stage and may not notice it.
Any ideas?
Any firmware notes on the subject?
Thanks,
Brian
