Title: Emulator II - Noise/Distortion after warming up Post by: Tax-5 on May 29, 2016, 11:08:07 AM I've been using the Emulator 2 (no HD or + Version) a few years now, but it started to sound odd.
When i load a bank, the Emulator works for 10-15 min. and then it begins to distort occasionally. The signal is getting quiet and crackles (like turning a dusty volume knob up and down)... I've read a few threads here, but it seems to be a different problem. What can i do? The E2 has no been moved or anything. Filter/Amp Chips?

See under, the solders are maybe crackled. Tke the soldering away and put new one. Title: Re: Emulator II - Noise/Distortion after warming up Post by: Tax-5 on June 02, 2016, 11:39:56 PM Very good Idea. I already did that yesterday.
I disassembled the whole EII and saw that one/two soldering points are crackled. I took the soldering away and put new one on the boards. I also refreshed one-two more, where i was thinking they could need it. Took me an hour of work and was totally worth it. I had the EII running for two hours yesterday and nothing distorted after that. I'll try to record my current project today.. maybe the problem is fixed??
