    H4N , Zoom digital mic recorder , crackling ,advice please

    Hi All

    These seem to be quite popular , but first time i'm attempting to repair one .

    Customer mentioned a crackling coming through when using an external mic to record via XLR ports .

    What i have experienced is the unit being tap sensitive & crackling even without playback .

    Anyone have experience of working on these units ?

      Roland KR-3500/4500 Digital Piano. Crackling audio sound on all keys -Fixed

After extracting the main board from the shield, I replaced 7 Capacitors...

      by sam_sam_sam
      When I originally started with my DVR recorder it had 4 individual switching switching power supply’s that were sh*t so I bought a 7 amp 12 volt switching power supply and modified the output plug and put a four output power supply cable to match the input power supply cable inputs

      Which worked for over 14 years until a few days ago when the cameras went dark no picture anymore well it turns out now the switching power supply has stopped working altogether now so I have to troubleshoot what has happened to this power supply more later on today what I found
