Anyone ran across an issue when connecting the MFC-101 to an AXE-FX Ultra (older unit, not the FX II) using the standard midi connection where you hear a volume swell about every 60 secs? It seems to coincide with line frequency, in terms of frequency, but I don't think it's picking up a stray AC signal.
I also notice that it doesn't make the noise thru the FX when I disconnect the midi cable from the MFC101.
I tried a master reset on the MFC101, no change. I can bypass all effects on the AXE-FX and with zero effects, it still pulses.. I can change presets on the MFC-101, but the data is not shown there from my previous presets. I also checked the midi settings on the FX, disabled various parameters, no change.
I believe the MFC-101 has went south, but hate to replace it at $650 cost if it can be salvaged somehow. I'd pay to get it fixed, if anyone has ideas there or has tech ability. It's a great pedalboard when it worked.
Bought in 2009, played a few years, but mostly been sitting in my studio, and starting to pick it back up again
