6 TROUBLESHOOTING

P.27

6.6 Problem: Hiss

Unplug the amplifier input to check that the hiss is coming from the source or from a device upstream. Erratic or popping noises indicate an electronic fault in the offending unit.

To keep the noise floor low, operate the primary signal source at full level, without clipping.

Avoid boosting the signal further between the source and the amplifier.

6.7 Problem: Squeals and Feedback

Microphone feedback must be eliminated by the mixer controls. If noise continues to build up with no microphone gain, there is a serious fault in the signal processors or cables. Working in stages from the signal source towards the amplifier and check each device in the signal path by reducing its gain or by unplugging it.
