Re: Repeater noise

[wavecomputer360@gmx.de]

Hi all,

talking about Repeater noise, did anyone figure that the Repeater produces
audible clicks when getting sounds from CFC cards? Mine does so and itīs
quite obvious that it literally "chops" the sound data into pieces, the
"click" frequency being dependent on the BPM setting. It doesnīt happen 
when
I load something from a card into the onboard memory. It canīt be the card
as itīs one the recommended ones, and even the one the Repeater originally
came with produces these glitches. Apart from that I find it quite decent,
not as noisy as my Jam Man but still not totally noise-free. It has a
unusual digital hiss to it which I find a bit disturbing.

Anyone know a cure for that nasty CFC "glitching" noise? And where can I 
get
this mod from? What does it cost? Is it available through anyone here in
Germany?

Stephen
