hello, i know the issue of the octa doing random power downs has been discussed. i’m curious though if this might cause it. this thing came loose …
That being loose wouldn’t cause that, maybe more likely a crack in the copper wire at the barrel connector, it’s quite stiff, so it can get a bit fatigued if tugged a lot - a simple test would be to gently wobble the cable or the barrel, gently, just to see if it drops power there - i had this with mine, but it could also be the power receptor that has a dry joint, so be sure to hold the barrel/cable steady as you gently move to see if it’s that. That ferrite sleeve moving wouldn’t be the cause imho but that’s not to say there’s no cable issue hidden from sight
thank you, i’ll test out the cable like you say. i play tresor in less than a month and the last thing i need is for it to do a power cycle during my set
