Post: RE: 50hz on booster input

Hey Flo! Indeed a 50Hz hum often points to some ground issue. Could be that the cable of the microphone itself is broken? Or even the cable you use to send the signal from the FX? Is that possible?

Yeah, I mean you are not wrong to assume this. If the Field Kit FX was "more CV matrix" and "less effects unit", it very likely could have been solved like this. It would mean that any incoming CV is ...

What you can try to do is to send audio into the spring tank via the Speaker Output, as it has the most "juice" in it. Since it normally moves a speaker it might potentially also move the springs of a...

You can just pop them out. There is no danger of breaking them - rather, losing them :P Just push them out and pop it into the other panel!

Okay. But the LED works when no CV is plugged and you turn the Intensity knob in PWM setting? Might be that the CV input jack is the culprit.

Hey! If you also have a DC motor, can you plug it into the DC interface, flip the switch into PWM mode and just use the Intensity knob to change the speed of the motor?
