Mailist to discuss all issues regarding the Digitech GSP-2101 Guitar FX Processor

I recently purchased a unit off eBay and there seem to be several 
problems.  For the record, I have replaced the battery, done a hard 
reset and traded out the tubes for known good ones.  All the jacks and 
switches work good.

1. If a patch uses a feedback setting in the reverb module I get a 
continuous faint echo from it that does not go away.  It does not decay.

2.  Every patch has a distortion like buzz to it.  This distortion 
appears in every patch even with the distortion turned off. Even with 
all effects bypassed.  The distortion  sounds like the tailing off of a 
distortion you would select but happens when you hit the first note and 
from there one while playing.

I was wondering where I should start troubleshooting these on the PCB.  
Feel free to email be for more into or detail.

I'm going to send them an email today.  I'm thinking of breaking out 
the multimeter and soldering gun and take a look around.

Mine up and died a few months ago and I sent it in.  Cost me all of 80 
bucks and it came back just like new.  Only problem... I didnt have any 
good backups for all my work...lost all my custom presets that I had 
been tweaking for years...

How did it die? If it just suddenly refused to power up I d suspect it was a transformer, which is an easy replace (bolts and plugs) and still available on
