Troubleshooting Guide
No sound Weak battery Not meant to insult your intelligence!
Sometimes a weak battery is just strong enough
to light the little red LED, but too weak to power
the sensors.
If not... then something
else is the culprit. Check for something disconnected or switched
off between ELX and speaker: power strip, amp,
effects box, mixer. “Divide and conquer.”
Loudness
uneven
amongst
reeds If all blow reeds or all
draw reeds affected. This most commonly occurs with the Stereo
setup. If you forget the stereo-mono adapter,
you will only get one channel .
Otherwise… contact us for instructions.
If only one or two
reeds affected. If too weak: Check for corrosion or tarnish on
respective reed. If too loud: adjust trim pot for
that particular read
Volume
seems to
drop out
when
bending low
notes This is not supposed to
happen, but if it does,
its due to improper
offset. First test by playing the harp with one of the lids
slightly pried open (about one fingernail
thickness.) If this solves the problem, then one
of the boards is too close to the reedplate and
the respective standoff screw needs loosened.
If it does not solve the problem
– call TurboHarp
Hiss when
idling There is normally a
small amount of
unavoidable hiss due
to the “idling” of the
optical pickups. Make sure that dynamic noise reduction button
(DNR) is depressed.
And/or: introduce a noise gate or an effects unit
with built-in gate, such as the RP-55.
whoosh
when
playing Typically on high blow
notes only. Usually
due to moisture on the
reed or sensor. Open harp, and blow away moisture.
Hum/buzz 60 Hz noise could be
due to several factors:
both electrical AND
optical. If there are fluorescent lights nearby, try
switching them off. If the ELX lid is open, it will
pick up 60Hz from any light source plugged in
the wall; but this will go away once you close the
lid. Else: look for bad connection, or cable.
Crackle, pop This is not a good
sign... please contact
us. Contact TurboHarp for a replacement.
