Hi all,

Today I've recieved my brand new Minitaur, and I'm very happy with… except for one thing that kinda worries me. I'm hearing clipping noises very often, right when a note kicks in. I haven't been able to find out exactly when a note clips. It seems quite random, as it's not just the loud or high/low notes that clip…

Here's a sound sample so you can hear it. (sorry about the lousy playing!)

Does anyone else have this issue? Or do you know a way to minimalize it?

I've tried everything I can think of the get the clipping noise away; tweaking the output signal, using different amps, different midi controllers (Roland PK5, Roland Xp50), different midi cables, grounded sockets etc. I don't use USB, just a midi controller.

Thanks!

check this post from the Phatty forum for more info on this sound and how to work with it:

cheers!

I just turn the attack up until the click is gone...
Unless I want the click. I have made some sick sounds with the attack and decay almost all the way down and running through some effects.
