Re: VFX crackles and Rotary Speaker Error 32

2013-11-01 by musicwithharry

I've never had that problem before.  Sounds like you may have some chips that may be going bad.  I would open it up and clean it out and make sure that the chips are seated correctly.  

I would also perform a hard reset and see what happens.

Grace, 
Harry
