RE: [Doepfer_a100] My A-121 has turned into a radio receiver.....

2002-07-17 by unknown freak

I've found my A-121 to be by far the least audiophile-quiet of all my 65
modules.  Often some hiss, though never with resonance cranked.

I'm interested that you report this issue only with your a-121.

(My Analogue Solutions drum modules tend to hiss a bit as well.)
