sorry missed your post all this time. :( Here's how to adjust volume levels for each patch... Open up the SV-1 Editor and go FX > TOTAL FX > Stereo Limiter It should default to these settings... Ratio 1.0:1 Threshold 0 dB Attack 1 ms Release 1 ms Gain +0dB <-- this is the dial you seek; it sweeps ...

take your SV-1 to a tech... i had the same problem with weak output (XLR went first, then the 1/4" started going intermittent... then i used the headphone jack for a year or so. had to take bunch'o'gear in for tune-up, had the SV-1 taken care of first; tech replaced 4 capacitors that were causing my ...

it was either 2 or 3 hours work.

tech said it wasn't that difficult to get at the capacitors but the disassembly takes some care.

iirc he told me there were 4 capacitors that handled the output signal, most weren't working properly; he replaced them all and gave me the originals.

yep, similar problem just resolved just got my SV-1 back from repair guy... intermittent signal and LR randomness... had it happening to varying degrees in the 1/4", xlr and phones... not all the time but enough. tech told me he's seen this/fixed this in other SV-1's. my SV-1 seems happy now, still ...

Thx! But they're all based on the 3 existing soundpacks :) ~ And Damien I emailed earlier.. copy/paste the ones you like from mine into yours using the SV-1 Editor. There's a reference chart in an earlier post in the thread showing which I'd used from the 3 soundpacks. Knowing the instruments is ...

Hey Damien On the SV-1 there's two locations for patch storage: FAVORITES 1-8 are the eight patches i use most; CP70-to-Pad ...#3 Rhodes i use most and right beside favorites SOUND which has six categories (epiano1 epiano2 clav piano organ other) each containing six patches (1-6) on the color chart ...

Switching to a patch with an active amp isn't safe for speakers in my experience.

I saved all the patches with amp OFF, then turn the amp on after loading patch. Works for me cuz there's only a couple patches I use/need amp for.

But yeh that amp made me jump a couple times.
