Re: DD20 odd behaviour: high-pitched constant whine in specific wiring situations
I haven't tried that, for one simple reason:
Having to use batteries is a showstopper from the view of my equipment
logistics, which using unbalanced lines is not.
I have, however, in the meantime tried to connect the DD20 with TRS
lines to the CentralStation (balanced ins), and found no noise. On the
other hand, the Mackie with other devices works fine as well - the
typical "swap devices and see what happens" test failed...

Rainer, I haven't had that one but have you tried running the DD 20 on
battery only yet? I have had that issue with another delay before;
battery/no noise, ac/noise so ps could be at fault which would be a
good thing...
best,

Hi everyone,
I'm finally at my wit's end - so the only possible solution left
is to ask you:
My Boss DD20 has for a long time been integrated into a setup
centered around a Mackie 1202 VLZ Pro mixer (aka "Nerdville
Setup"). After remodelling that setup recently ("Nerdville 2.0"),
I considered a constant high-pitched shrieking sound emitting from
the DD20.
The sound is also present if there are no inputs connected to the
DD20, or if all other connections to the mixer are removed. The
sound remains if I connect the DD20 to different inputs of the
mixer. Trying different cables doesn't help, either.
The sound does not appear in the DD20's headphone connection, and
by using an unbalanced (TS) cable instead of a TRS cable to
connect the DD20 to the mixer.
So the short version: workaround defined (using TS cable).
However, I'd prefer to know what is happening here.
Any ideas?
Rainer
