Re: echoplex digital pro no longer supported by gibson?!?!?

[Bob Weigel <sounddoctorin@imt.net>]

So is this with a pedal plugged in or not?  I'm not that a familiar with 
the operation of these...unfortunately after setting on them for months 
I just shipped off 4 of them today since I think we decided to abandon 
trying to build our project around them I spoke of earlier.

But try reseating all chips in sockets while having no static 
electricity on you of course.  Touch something grounded.  It sounds like 
possibly one of the switches is just stuck or something though. -Bob
