Newbie here.... First of all I really appreciate all of the expertise and support of this forum. Second, I couldn't find a master 1290 thread, so I am posting this here. I have built two Neve 1290 channels based on Martin's amazing guide. I am using the JLM AC/DC PSU built outside of the 1U case I built the 1290s in. I am getting hiss starting at the 4th position on the gain switch. When both gain switches are at max, I get an even worse hiss. I have checked everything Martin suggested: voltages, solder joints, resistor values, transformer wiring. I am using all shielded cable. Here is my first question. Should pin1 of my input XLR be connected to chassis ground, therefore grounding pin6 and 10 of the input transformer? Anything else I can look at?
Any help is appreciated! I have been troubleshooting this guy for weeks now....
Thanks,
Brian
