No Saturated/Distorted Tube - V2 tube not working

No Saturated/Distorted Tube - V2 tube not working

2007-05-22 by goolsy25

Hi. I can no longer get a sound through my Saturated/Distorted Tube
settings. The Clean Tube works no problem. I have tried swapping the
valves and I get the same issue so I know the valves are fine. I'm
guessing it has to do with the V2 circuitry. Has anyone experienced
this before and were you able to fix it? Thanks.

Schematics

Does anyone have the schematics for the gain stages of the 2101, both tube
and Solid State ones.

 

Any help would be great.

You can find the schematic in the "Files" section of the other Yahoo 
Group called "GSP2101" without the hyphen. --- In gsp-

It just started happening (or rather not happening) one day. The unit
wasn't dropped or pushed too hard. I simply plugged in my guitar
loaded up a preset that used Saturated Tube and did not hear anything.
Most strange.

I tried to do 2 different system resets and neither of them worked
sadly. But thanks for the suggestion anyway.

You could contact Digitech to get it serviced, or maybe someone on 
this or the other 2101 list can service it for you....
any volunteers?
We all own and love this old dinosaur, and probably soon we will all 
need servicing work. Maybe someone who is fluent in this stuff could 
go into this business?
