Hi Tom! Here's some stupid suggestions 'cause you've probably already thought of these, but anyway... What happens when you try a different Mackie channel? What happens when you patch the DL-4 into/out-of aux or effect send/returns instead of using the insert? What happens when you substitute another unit (non DL-4) for the DL-4? (You could even use a plain wire.) I suspect a fault in the mixer since you've changed everything else.

Always connected the same way - Hosa insert patch cable (1) connected from the L input/L output to the channel 1 (same channel as my clip-on mic) insert on my Mackie 1202. Recently, I was getting a tone (registering as a high D# on my tuner) generated thru the system, which I was able to trace to the DL4. I put in an different Hosa cable and the sound got slightly louder. I have a performance this Friday, so I went and bought another DL4, adapter and a Monster patch cable - same thing, except that now - regardless of which unit or cable - tone generation seems to be intermittent (?...), but putting an insert in the Mackie jack 'deadens' the mixer - no levels on my effects with it plugged in exactly where it has always been. Anyone have any idea?
