So I like using the headphone output of the 60II because it is louder than the stereo outs in the back. But... Whenever I go to sample a sound with the headphone out plugged in, I get a ton of white noise. This noise is reduced whenever I turn down the "record level" number option in the sampling menu to 0. What part do I need to replace in order to fix this?

The only guess I can make so far is that I need to replace the headphone output circuit board.

Help :hmmm:

UPDATE: The white noise is present in the stereo outs as well, But it has to do with the gain switch in the back. If it is on low and 'record level' is set at 81 or above then the white noise is barely audible, to loud. IF it is switched to medium, the white noise is very audible above 0.

Is this normal for you other mpc 60 owners out there? OR do I need to replace a part? I have sprayed Deoxit on every contact since I purchased the machine so I don't think it is that. My audio interface (Echo Audiofire 12) is known for emitting a subsonic noise that is normally below human hearing levels.

I am wondering if this noise is just being amplified by the MP in sample mode. Give me some feedback brothers! :smoker:
