Sustain Cuts Out

2007-06-16 by gamecockdude2001

Hey all:

I've only had this unit for a few weeks.  I really like it.  I just 
noticed something about it though.  If i pick a note and hold it, 
instead of just decaying out it goes for a few seconds then abruptly 
cuts out.  If there is a delay or some other modulated effect with it 
then you hear that effect a little but not the original signal. This 
appplies to distorted presets.  I cant tell anything on clear 
presets.  The string volume swell setting appears to behave normally 
though.  I don't know if this is normal or not.  I've done factory 
resets, hard resets, and swapped out tubes, still the same thing.  I 
did notice if the pitch of the note is lower it appears to sustain a 
little longer but nothing like i would think is normal  I have it 
connected to a small mixer(behringer xenix 502) and ran back out into 
my cd/mp3 input.  I have a a/b/y switch so i run an imput to the 
input of the amp head(line6 spider III) and the other input to the 
input of the digitech.  This allows me to compare the sustain on the 
head to the digitech.  Obviously the head has a much longer, decaying 
sustain. I have the artist software ver. 3, no ppc board.  I've also 
tried the digitech just straight to the input of the head, without 
mixer.  still the same thing.  Does anyone have any ideas?  or am I 
just hearing things.  thanks Bill
