Re: EchoplexDP Plus: "tick-tick-tick" noise problem

["Cox" <cox1@tiscali.fr>]

Thanks for answering.
I tried what you told me, here are the results:

    I tried to plug my EDP in other rooms (my wife thought I had gone crazy
:-) without any consequence: as before, the noise sometimes appears
sometimes not.
    When I use the half speed function, it affects the noise: it is played
half-speed as well.
    I changed the power cable, and tried to plug nothing to the EDP: so I
looped silence; but the noise still appears in this case.
    I must specify that if the noise seems to appear in a random way, once
it's here it's recorded in the loop: it comes back regularly within the
loop.

I guess no outside factor causes this problem, right?
Is it serious, doctor?
