Duke64 Posted November 26, 2010 Report Share Posted November 26, 2010 (edited) Hey there, It's me again. No panic, it seems to be everything fine. No SID toast action or something else ;) But after some time I recognized, that one channel is a little bit louder than the other : ~1dBfs. It's normal ? I checked the soldering points of the resistors : all ok. My SID types : 8580 R5 - 3988 25 8580 R5 - 3588 25 Maybe the tolerance of the resistors or the different types of SIDs are the problems? If I don't know if it's normal or not, I have no ambitions to solder out the caps or trans and replace then. I have the problem in Stereo and mono mode. I test it with the InitialPatch. ... and, no. I think it's not a user error : I use LineIn channels on my interface, so no preamp differences. I tested 4 pairs of line-in channels, everytime the same problem. AND ... I test another interface. And no, the software/channel-strip is configured right. SO I think it's the sammich. Thanks for your help, again.

Flemming Posted November 26, 2010 Report Share Posted November 26, 2010 It might be the SIDs. Try to swap them and see if the problem shifts too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke64 Posted November 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2010 I try to delay the swap-action ... But jeah you are right : the problem are the SIDs. Now, I regret to crashed my matched pair of 6581. But hey, this is the old cool shit and this is the reason, we love this things :ahappy: I correct the level inside of my DAW and all fine.

nILS Posted November 26, 2010 Report Share Posted November 26, 2010 You mean you won't try anytime soon, but you *know* it's the problem? I need to get myself one of them crystal balls as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke64 Posted November 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2010 I try to delay the swap because I'm afraid to damage the SIDs (I think you know why). But after Fellmings post I do the swap (I hope the last time in my life). The louder channel changeover from left to right >> SIDs sound different. Do you belive in crystal balls anymore ? :sorcerer: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
