<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I recently got one from eBay, but experiencing some strange things and would like to know from other users that got this little sampler if it is normal or I should send it back...</p> <p>-When sampling I really need to shout or to sing/talk at 1cm from the microphone grill, otherwise it listens for a vocal sample forever, really high volume source needed, hard to trigger the sample record above threshold and this usually results in strong clicks/pops in sample tail (the manual says "record birds singing"........)</p> <p>-The ECHO seems linked to RELEASE TIME, when I edit the ECHO it also modifies the release time when I switch ECHO off... and only editing ECHO I can get an higher release time (if I just sample then press RELEASE and "+", I just can't get far into long release times as when editing the echo time that reflects into release time even when the first is disabled)</p> <p>-Using the stock sounds for example, even trying to do the "helicopter" (instr. manual hint), so marimba + clicking on "reverse", it always first plays a repeated section of normal marimba notes and only then starts playing the reversed ones</p> <p>-In general, the sampled voice max volume is lower than stock sounds</p> <p>-Whenever I click a button I can hear a slight electrical noise, and a "pink noise" hiss is always present in the output (both speaker and line out)</p> <p>​</p> <p>It is really important to me as I can't find answers to these specific problems on the web and it is the only way to evaluate this thing before sending it back! I don't know (if broken) if it is worth fixing or is better to look for another one.</p> <p>Thanks a lot</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/Vannixxo"> /u/Vannixxo </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/d0nd2m/for_yamaha_vss30_owners/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/d0nd2m/for_yamaha_vss30_owners/">[comments]</a></span>
