So let me cut to the chase, Im 1 day past my warranty, DAMNNNNNNN im hit. Now heres the thing every month - 2 months ill start the mp up and hit pads here them then hear white noise when i hit em then nothing, then i restart and boom 1000% back to norm for another long while. could this be a software bug? Cause i do recall it only happening after a brown out 6 months ago but before I go spending dough replacing the sound board on it i just want some others opinions, it happend again today which is why i bring it up. checked the cables and mixer and turned the mixer on off aswell and nope it was the mp. whatchu guys think? I truley dont wanna send her to get fixed i cant last a couple days without er :(


lemme know the science
peace

its not even thatm essed up i have a huge power filter surge protector too though which is whats f'd up, itsj ust the sound will cut out once after start up then i restart and its good 1000% for months till it happens. it really is just annoying incase i wanna do a live set but other then that I guess its not that bad. can anyone chime in if they assume its hardware or software issue cause vst isnt that cheap to replace that ish and before i go spending id like some brotha's opinons yannnow?

thanks peace

There was an issue in the early OSes when after using the USB connection you get only noise out of the outs. Could that be the problem?

Well if you're not already on it, you should update to the latest OS. Then that USB issue should be sorted, if it happens again it must be another problem.
