Re: NEOTEK: Elan m2 problem

[Ike Zimbel]

Hi Tomer,     I've just re-read this a couple of times. It sounds like there could be two problems, but I'm not sure if you are talking about the LED meter's when you talk about the green LEDs, or if there is a green "On" led as part of the Three Mute fader card (I haven't seen one in a while). Anyway, it sounds like the audio could be cutting out because of a fault with the solo-in place function. For starters, I would try exercising every switch in the solo and mute circuits, including the masters (I won't be around my Elan docs until tomorrow, so this is all from memory). Sometimes a switch that you never use can fail in the "off" position, so be sure and turn all of them on and off at least a few times. See if anything changes.     I will try and look at the schematics on the 5th. best, Ike Tomer Lahav wrote: Hey Guys,   I've got a really weird problem with an Elan m2 that I haven't been able to resolve... Every once in a while there's an electrical sounding noise that lasts for a few seconds, sounds like a power surge. All the green leds on each channel strip are weakened while this noise occurs, and sometimes the main solo led flickers on although nothing's in solo. Another thing that happens is like a quick drop out that lasts just a split second - green leds flicker off and then immediately back on, sound is interupted. These symptoms became more and more frequent and it has completely disabled the studio.   Any help would be greatly appreciated,   Thanks, Tomer   -- Ike Zimbel Zimbel Audio Productions Ltd.
