MF-104M issue on Mix control

Post by aledenadai » Wed Jul 05, 2017 2:30 am

Hello folks,
I have a Moogerfooger MF-104M bought new back in 2012.
I use it in the effects loop of my guitar amps and everything always worked fine, apart from the Mix control.
The problem is I never can pass 9 o'clock with it, otherwise the signal gets overwhelmingly wet.
At first I thought this would be how the thing is, but looking at demonstration videos, I noticed that people go way over this point although still keeping a good wet/dry balance.
Does anyone have experienced this issue? Any simple fix?
Best!

Make sure you have the latest firmware, do a calibration and it might get back to normal:

What do you mean by calibration?

There is a calibration procedure for the knobs on the MF104M.

However, I now see that the instructions for this are not at Moog's site. I think you should write to tech support and ask them for this document, since I am not authorized to share it

Well, they had shared a beta which includes the calibration procedure some time ago: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=22060#p133604

The installation instructions for v1.1.3 firmware downloadable on Moog's support page include the knob calibration routine.
