Hi all,
I contacted M/B, but was told to just take it to a tech which I cannot afford to do. Here are the symptoms:
The foot controller doesn't seem to respect the (any) channel EQ setting when the channel is set to off.
-ex. channel 1 has EQ assignment switch set to 'off' and the EQ foot switch is engaged (lit), I would expect that when switched to channel 1 that the EQ would turn off for that channel and reengage if ch.2/3 were on either 'EQ on' or 'EQ FS'.
-if happens for every channel which that state is reached
When the foot controller is unplugged:
-amp (when changing channels) respects switch assignment: EQ on engages EQ. EQ 'off' or 'FS' bypasses EQ. (normal?)
I bought a second cable and it produces the same outcomes, therefore I believe it is either the foot controller or relay/s in amp.
How can I figure out what part is producing the problem? I'm a hobbyist and have built/rebuilt/modded mainly older amps, but the MV is a bit complex for me and I thought someone here would know a lot more off the bat than I do! I have not worked on relay systems. I do understand the risks and warnings of working on amplifiers. I'm hoping to get this going again on my own.
Thanks for your help!
