AX8 - Vibration causing unit to flash/glitch

Hello everyone,

I purchased a used AX8 while on hiatus from playing in a (loud) cover band. Used it at home with either in-ears or studio monitors at reasonable volume. Took it to practice the other day and, as soon as the full band kicked in, the unit started giving me a flashing light show: all the indicator lights were going nuts. The band stopped and I stomped on the floor next to the unit: same thing. I balled up a sweatshirt and put the unit on that and limped through the rest of practice.

Anyone else had this problem? Anyone know of a fix or is my unit just going to be unreliable in a live setting?
 
Contact Fractal Support. Could be as simple as a loose ribbon cable but they may be able to help troubleshoot and walk you through any potential repair process.

I used an AX8 weekly for over a year with a sub under my position on the stage without any issues.
