Hallo Blue Bandit!
Hmmmm.... the first thing I would try is a factory
reset (press and hold "1", switch on 2101, release "1", press "up"). Dont forget
to bulk dump before doing this.
Have you experienced any other abnormalities?
Then check, if the problem only
appears on one Tube- section or on both.
Check the voltage on the optocoupler pin 1 (U37 for
V1 and U38 for V2). The voltage is the Gian - control- Voltage. It must be the
same in both cases (failure appears or not).
Tell me the results.

My 2101 is from 8/94 and has version 1.06.06 (is that bad??). My distortion level seems to vary. For example, on the factory preset # 48 Gilrock Swirl (on mine at least ... I don't have the "Artist" upgrade) when I switch on the channel sometimes the distortion doesn't sound heavy. If I switch up a channel and down again, it gets heavier. Sometimes it takes a few "switches" to get the full distortion. I unplugged the 2101 foot controller to make sure that was not doing this. I swapped out the original tubes for some Grove Tubes GT12AX7Rs. The problem still existed (it's been about a year.) Obviously, I haven't played it a lot, BUT I AM NOW!!!!!! If you have any ideas I would really appreciate the help!!
Thanks
