Edit: Trying to figure out how to embed a video.
Yesterday I received an AR from Reverb. It was listed in “excellent” condition with the original box, packaging, cords, and even the startup guides, from a 5-star seller who was quick to answer my questions and seemed like a decent, friendly person. However it seems I bought a lemon and I’d like some thoughts before I go full Karen.
I did a factory reset and updated to 1.50A. Nothing changed. So I took this video.
1 - The FX button will not do anything unless I hit it quite hard.
2 - Same thing trying to get into global mode, and even then it doesn’t always work.
3 - The pads aren’t recognizing my input. Pads 7 and 9 are the most frequent offenders and malfunction more often than they work.
4 - It wobbles, which is really only a big deal because I specifically asked the seller if it sits level and he specifically said it does.
I want to give the guy the benefit of the doubt, thinking maybe he didn’t use it enough to see these issues, however problem 4 makes it hard to not think the whole thing is a scam. Also, I’ve only used this for a couple hours total and I’m worried there are other issues I haven’t yet discovered.
Am I missing something here? Am I doing something wrong? AITA?
