Re: Echoplex Issues
I bought a brand new Echoplex early this year and had similar problems where the buttons get crosswired and perform incorrect functions. I tracked it down to an overheating issue. The switch circuit board is located right next to the power transformer and when it heats up, the unit goes haywire. Sucks. If I rack it, it needs a space above it but that still doesn't garantee an error free machine. Just a hot day is enough for the edp to play up making live gigs close to unusable. When I do perform live, I use my Repeater in conjunction with the edp. One, because I love the combination of both loopers and two, as a backup looper if the edp goes haywire.
Anyone have a fix for this? All I can think of is drill vents in the case and/or install a fan somehow?? I don't think moving the board is an option. Maybe the power supply??
I love the edp but am very dissapointed by it's reliability.
