I'm pretty sure its not the jitters, it only happens when I use the electribe for long periods of time (2+ hours) straight. And my knobs just stop working all together =(

i'm deff still under warrenty, i got it last saturday. But I am taking it back to guitar center to get a replacement though, who knows how long it will take to get a new one though =/

generic tech response

As a PC tech this sounds like a heat issue. Maybe a heat sync is not secured properly. Or a faulty power supply reacting to heat.

But I would return to merchant and get them to authorize a warranty repair. You might need to consult with Korg about procedure.

You could also pay an *authorized* service center to troubleshoot it (ie open it and rule out my points above). Likely you would have to pay out of pocket for this and Korg would rather you just ship it to them.
