Ok i'm tired of searching Duck Duck Go. Does anyone know of a A/D convertor that is just balance or unbalanced to a thunderbolt or usb connection. Just a convertor, no gain what so ever? Also for under 500 US?

Thanks

I have a wall wart adapter that's making a kind of fizzing noise when switched on. It appears to be working ok and not affecting the unit it's powering but shit like this makes me a little nervous. Anything I should be worried about? It's probably 20+ years old.

yes replace it. It could start a fire.

That sounds troubling, but could it be the outlet? I’ve had to replace a number of outlets that got full of dust and started frying it audibly.

Is it a linear or a switching power supply?

What's a good expression pedal to use with a Dwarfcraft HAX2? Because it doesn't seem to work too well with the M-Audio one I have. I assume the issue is that the pot value and/or taper is wrong. I'd email "[my] old pal aen" but a cursory googling told me Dwarfcraft is out of the biz, at least for the time being.

The M-Audio one is crummy anyway, it won't stay "parked" it just drifts back to "toe-down" after a second or 2. Should I be checking around for a broken Crybaby and just make my own?

Moog one works well. Is adjustable.

Thank you, will do.

Yeah, I’d probably take it out of commission.
Gonna, cheers.

Seems fine with other plugs/adaptors in it.

Dunno, I'd have to check.

^ if the wort has numbers, symbols on it get one that is exactly like it, if it doesn't check the manual. If you have a hard time PM me and I'll try to help.

Anyone know what the going rate for a USED Gibson Les Paul Custom was in around 93-95? Just a regular stock LPC in good player condition.

Either I or my friend have the price WAY off and I ask you the PRF to confirm which of us is crazy.
