Hey right ive been using the digital eq quite a bit recently but i been having a problem with the reverb and delay on the effects board. when i apply the reverb i ghet a massive noisey crackle and when i apply the delay it clicks a pops.

I just wondered if anyone else has had a problem with this? or knew what the problem would be.

Turn down the level for your return in the effects mix page. Check your headroom also in the Global page and set your headroom to at least -6 dB. Gain, gain, gain.

I did what you said, even when the delay is really quiet, you can still hear the pops and clicks.
The reverb no matter what level just creates loud white noise. You cannot even hear the reverb. Its funny because its only the reverb and delays? Any other idea? im guessing its ****.

I just tested my system with delay and reverb I have no white noise, pops or crackle. It may be your unit.
