| My Deep Impact has died

Yes yes, sad sad situation.
Yesterday when I showed up in our rehearsalroom I plugged in and found out that my DI wouldn't track normally.
In fact, I couldn't get any input signal at all, unless I turned the "input level" all the way up, and played very hard on my strings, and even then, I got barely nothing.
This past weekend I played an outdoors gig with strong sunlight on the stage, and because I had my DI set up with a fuzz (via the LS-2) I can use them simultaneously and gain good results.
During this one song-intro I am playing in the higher register on the G-string, with the sub-octave-filter on the DI engaged (program 6), then, when the song gets a bit heavier I switch to my fuzz, and play the rest of the song, lower on the neck. After the song I see that I didn't turn off the DI as I would have, and therefore the sub-octave was engaged during the whole song which has low D's and really powerful playing in it... I wonder if that is what fried the input-stage?
On my LS-2 the volumelevel of the loop the DI is in, is set much lower than the loop with my fuzz in it, which means that when both are engaged the fuzz is the one that is heard the most, that's why I didn't notice the DI was engaged untill the end of the song
Later in the set, it tracked fine though, but just thought I would mention it.
I've tried another PSU, different cables, opening it up and looking and the guts, where everything seems fine.
I don't know what to do? |
