Echoplex noise

["Future Perfect" <artmusic@gte.net>]

I remember reading about a similar problem...and I am searching the list as
I type...
My Plex just started acting funny after I switched it's position in a
6-space rack. Basically, at my 'normal' input level (with the input knob
only a quarter up), the resulting loop is quite distorted, with added white
noise and loss of bass, almost as if the sound is cutting in and out at
times. There are no power amps in my rack, although it is next to a synth
module that seems to get a little warm. It certainly sounds like it *could*
be heat related, I just want to know which of you had a similar problem and
how you solved it. And I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but
when this happens and I switch it back on, for just a moment, a '666'
flashes on the LEDs...how weird is that? hehe
