hello
my old vintage roland is making strange noises, how to describe it.. it stops and starts but basically, it sounds like dusty+glitch+static kinda noise.
this expert guy told me to leave it on for a while to warm up, but it hasn't been cured yet. sitting down for ages.
any tips (beside going all the way to the repair shop)??
should i just open it up and just clean out the dust? after all..it's so old.
thanks-

Have you tried different audio cables as maybe there is a break in them , also try cleaning the contacts of the audio outputs.

yeah, i should try that. though i think the problem is not that since there is one clean channel..
thanks anyway!
