Posted: Sun Sep 24, 2017 2:50 pm Post subject: [Volca Sample] Noise on Isolator knobs |
|
|
Does anyone else have pretty bad noise when turning or touching the isolator knobs? Mine were pretty bad when I first got it. Before I record anything I have to turn the knobs quite a bit before I can clear the static noise on the rotary knobs.
I am a bit reluctant to desolder them of the board and clean the tracks inside as they never go back perfectly. Ill see if I can open it up and spray in some contact spray. |

They are just analog pots, so i think electrical spray and lube should sort them straight out. |

Ive had a look inside. The pots are pretty small so sealed. They are not like the pot on older equipment with greasing holes.
Ill try spraying them but in doubt that the contact spray will reach the tracks |

Hello, I am new to the forum. Sorry to bump an old thread but ive looked every where for solutions,
after purchasing a used volca sample Ive noticed the bass analog isolator crackles when I twist it.. Its not that bad but its hard to ignore
I have little experience with dissembling things so I'm not sure what I should do, I really want to fix this... Advice is greatly appreciated |
