Re: Hi, it's me again...



Hi. I've had the same problem with the repeater of a friend of mine. He 
just
got it from another member of looper's delight. (How are you Luca?) and he
phoned me about dealing with the high noise floor of the repeater. We took
it to my home-studio and I tried it between my pre and my mixer. No noise. 
I
tried then to put it in one of the send/return loops of the mixer. Still no
noise. Back to his home I tried it with his instruments. The noise was 
there
and it was high. (He too uses it with a pre and a power-amp. No mixer). 
Then
I saw on the link I'm sending you one possible solution to manage the
problem.

http://www.electrixpro.com/support/faq.html

Look under the section 'My Repeater seems really noisy. Why?'. We tried to
mod the cables like this and the problem was solved. In my studio 
theproblem
didn't show up because I use all my instruments set to +4 db and with
balanced cables. He used it with a -10db output preamp and directly into 
the
power amp, other fx in the fx-loop of his pre.

Just try this. It is a possibility.

Peace
Luigi
