i've noticed though that it outputs alot of hiss. i've always tried to block it from my mind but do you think it IS the mixer.
is buzzing related to electrical fields and hiss to the mixer (ie. seperate)?
are there any other checks because i'm fed up with it now and i'll be forced to change it.

I had Soundtracks Topaz Macro Plus and even I can say that it was much more noisier than my new 01v. However I got JV-1080, which gaves a lot of noise but disabling channels when they are not playing will help me in that (along gates in each input too =)
You can also check if there's some electric wires or gadgets that makes somekind of electro magnetic fields that makes noise. Monitor is a good example of that.

altho, my E4 and virus both his noticeably. I think most pieces do?
try the test and see if its the mixer.

hiss you get from the virus when you
have an input or vocoder patch
selected? even when there's no
input it's insane!

dont use the vocoder much...
whats wierd is...and this is exactly the same on my E4...the extra outs get progressively noisier?
my E4 mains are pretty quiet, then it goes to the subs and they get more and more hiss. hmmmm

probably the same prob with your gear...audio lines near power lines. External FX outputs too high, gains too high on channels?
as for me and the E4...I just traded my E4 rack for an Esynth keyboard, and its got 4.10...

Virus. It's dead quiet, except with the
previously noted issue of having an
"input" program selected.
Caspar, what're you gonna do about the
dead outs?

noise went down a lot.... the aux sends were tl072, which are pretty
noisy (apparently) and must not have been a good choice for a summing bus... they are supposedly good for EQ (i couldn't separate in mine,
2 chips, gain and bass/treble in one pkg, mid and level control in other
but the 2604s have seemed better all around. have a couple of channels to "resurrect" now though...good thing it's modular those are about $2 each
if you buy 25 or more at a time from digikey...
just one person's experience....
