I’ve had this Timefactor for about 10yrs now and in the last month or so i noticed an intermittent crackle/pops coming through as I play on the clean channel. First I ruled out the amp–disconnecting everything going through the effects loop–no crackle/pops. Then I replaced every patch cable in the effects loop–no change (still crackles). Then I started removing pedals in the effects loop chain–when I removed the timefactor, the crackle and pops ceased. Then, I experimented with changing the BYPASS from “DSP with FX” to “Relay” and also verified the crackle and pops no longer present–until I engaged the pedal output. I went a step further and powered the Timefactor with a different Eventide PS and the crackle persists. I cleaned the pots and jacks with electronic cleaner–no change. So, the issue seems internal.
Anyone else experienced this? Solutions?
