Faint Sounds on Some Patches

Got my Prologue 16 a few days ago and so far this thing is blowing my mind.

Other than the Mac compatibility update issue I mentioned in my other post I've noticed one other small anomaly and was wondering if anybody else has encountered a similar problem?

On some patches there seems to be an extremely faint sound that you can hear in headphones. It's reminiscent of crosstalk on a tape deck.

It almost sounds like the arpeggiator is still running or maybe one of the effects is trailing on or in a feedback loop.

Perhaps it's just a minor bug that will be fixed once I'm able to update?

Its the same on mine.
It sounds almost like the old modems sounded when transferring data.

Do you like me also have a low fluttering noise in the left channel when the L.F.Compressor is on?

Thanks for the reply.

I'm glad to know I wasn't imagining things.

The mystery sounds certainly aren't a deal breaker but it is a little weird.

I noticed the LF Comp adds a tiny bit of noise too but I figure that's probably normal for an analog compressor.

On mine the compressor noise in the left channel is rather high.
Im not sure if I shall send it back for repair or not.
It sounds like this audiofile, but of course the audiofile is much boost.

Unfortunately I can't access that file even after logging into Dropbox.

Thanks all the same.

I've got issues with osc 2 on my prologue 8 , was trying to reproduce it for recording and then I notices that sometimes osc2 don't produce sound at all
