Static noise?

Post by oldgeezers940 »

ughh,

so my replacement electribe just came in and if i turn it up past about half way there is a static noise in the background that is really bothersome during the silence...


is this common and/or fixable?

I'm kinda tired of getting screwed up electribes...

Can you hear it through just regular headphones even?
Back in my day, we didn't have water. We only had Oxygen and Hydrogen, and we'd have to just shove them together.

I have the EMX-1 but it produce a static sound even with the tubes turned all the way down and turning up the level of the tubes doesn't seem to make the static louder...

its just the tubes i guess

best thing to do would be to swtich the tubes

the ones that come with the tribe cause way too much distortiona and noise
try gettin the groove tubes Ruso and others talk about
