Pa 4X main board fault

Post by Georgeymc »

Hi All, I'm having an issue with my Pa 4x......I used it Thursday without issue at a wedding ceremony and then Sat went to use it and I have an unusable low audio output. When i say unusable I mean to say its there and I can hear it with headphones but its not hot enough for it to work with a PA. I've just installed the new Next os and nothing has changed. Any insights and help would be greatly appreciated. Philip

Hey Philip

Do you get the same low audio from the headphones?

Yeah....so low that it’s barely audible over the noise of the keys, but it is there and all functions are operating correctly

Yes it’s on and set at 2.0. When I play a note the “out” level indicator hits approx 25

update.....the problem was hardware, a local engineer had to remove 3 chips from the main board individually before he found the culprit. FYI P
