Pitchtraq with MIDI/ distorted sounding

(1/5) > >>

Griphook:
Hey folks,
I dont have any luck with my ADA gear..
My Pitchtraq arrived and it is not as original as I thought. It got a MIDI-jack on the Back.

During Startup the dispalys shows as follows:
1. Everything blinkinbg a few times
2. 3.00
3. P 3
4. Ch 1
5. Lint (or something like that)
Is this normal behaviour?
I am using the Effect Out and I got a constant hum and a kinda distorted sound.
Addional I often get a really Loud Noise (about 5x the normal output). Depending on the used Program.

Any ideas on this?
Thank you in advance

Quite unique indeed since the Pitchtraqs never had MIDI. I'm really curious how they did this mod. I actually gave away (for free) one of my Pitchtaqs to a guy on the old ADA Depot who was working on a Midi mod for it. I told him the only thing he had to repay me with was to promise to mod my main Pitchtaq if he ever figured out how to do it. I never heard back from him and the old Depot crashed, so I'm wondering if he ever was able to make it happen. Did you happen to buy yours from a guy in Wisconsin,  USA?

Griphook:
No, I bought it from a guy in Germany. Unfortunately he can't (or just does not want to) tell me anything about that unit. He bought it together with a complete Rack, but never used the Pitchtraq.

I'll attach some Pictures of the Inside. It looks like someone really knew, what to do  :o
EDIT: I cant upload any pictures. Not .JP, nor .png. The files are about 2500KB large. So that should not be a problem, should it?

 

MarshallJMP:
Hey Griphook, send the pics to my email and I'll have a look at it. But I can tell you it will not be a midi input. It seems it has some power supply issues.
Can you also make a small video so I can see what happends at startup?

Griphook:
Since the Files are too big for an E-mail, I just uploaded it as a .zip-File on Zippyshare. I hope, that is ok:
Here I got a Dropbox-Share. Hope this willl work.https://www.dropbox.com/sh/l1n9fzvaiou34py/AAB_zoEgy4ASnTwtMOVNy6ada?dl=0

EDIT: Edited the link. Uses now a share in my Dropbox.
