Based on what you described of the sound in one of the previous mails (i.e. present during recording and when mute is on), it would seem unlikely that software would be generating it, since digital audio is turned completely off during those operations by an analog circuit. And since your noise only appears when the mix potentiometer is in a particular range, and the mix potentiometer is entirely part of an analog circuit, it would seem even less likely to have much to do with software. Also, oddly, your description seems rather different from what I recall you describing to me before, but no matter. I'm probably not remembering it right. And while I can certainly sympathize with your troubles in dealing with Oberheim's transitional period (believe me, I REALLY know what you're going through!), I don't think that flaming the hell out of the two guys who are working the hardest to set things straight, and who appear to have gone to extra effort just to make you happy, is the best approach. They are not the problem, they are part of an effort to correct it. Take a deep breath, and chill for a day, and then let's see if we can figure out where the buzzes are coming from. kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@annihilist.com | http://www.annihilist.com/loop/loop.html http://www.annihilist.com/ | Loopers-Delight-request@annihilist.com
