Re: Dual-Phatty poly chain - noticeable difference?

... message! - Don't worry about this one if your Slim has been working fine so far - My two Slim Phattys both had an issue with self-moving "dancing dials" (nothing to do with the poly-chaining aspect). In most cases that issue is caused by not grounding the Phatty properly (with a 3-pin ...

Re: PRESET ACTIVE NO LONGER AVAILABLE

Try a different outlet. If that doesn't work, you may have a faulty grounding in your home, or a bad transformer in your neighborhood. I remember one other member who had problems with the dancing dials related to a faulty transformer in his apartment complex.

... power the Phatty since I first bought it without ever having previously experienced this problem. It sounds like I have been afflicted with the 'dancing dial syndrome' that you describe. Good to know that it's a known issue, and I appreciate your time. Maybe I'll try a few different power cables ...

Re: PRESET ACTIVE NO LONGER AVAILABLE

The reason I ask is that a bunch of us have had problems with parameters moving themselves (dancing-dial syndrome as it's been dubbed), and this can often be the cause for the Phatty to self-change to Panel Active (this problem is often solved ...

... full range, but the light does not go over the full range, only between 12 and 6 o'clock. At the same time, the value remains stable, nothing like dancing dials. When I change preset, the problem effects immediately. When I check the parameters values using "precision mode", it appears ...

Re: Not letting me play factory presets

Sounds like dancing light syndrome. What you should do is first change outlets. If that doesn't work, plug the synth into an outlet in another room. If all else fails, call the power company and tell them THEY have a problem. It is a grounding issue, not a software issue. :wink:

Re: panel messing up

There are many instances of the "dancing dials" phenomenon. Try a different outlet or a power conditioner. If that doesn't help, search dancing dials here on the forum. It is likely a ground issue. I have only had this happen once ...

Re: Moog LP Issue - Help! Amos?

This looks like the common 'dancing dials' grounding issue. You could investigate and ensure that you are using a 3-prong power cable into a well-grounded power outlet. See if the issue remains when running from another outlet (try another ...
