Hi,
I'm very grateful for your help!
Something strange happened this morning: turned on my ADA, switched to a program with voicing set to "dist" and it started playing at a low volume, but gradually the volume started to increase and the distortion became more and more high until it reached a good level.
Now I'm very confused..
I don't know if the next time I will use the ADA it will works. Are you still convinced the problem could be caused by the tubes or could it be something else?

Thank you

Giulio

Could be something else but again my first impression is the tubes or one of them.

MJMP,
Doesn't this symptom sound like a restriction in the voltage supply to the tube(s)?

Giulio,
What happens if you switch to another distortion program when it comes up to volume? Does it go to that program and play at full volume or does that gradually swell up to volume too?

It could be as simple as some dust in the socket causing some resistance that comes and goes. Hence my suggestion to pull the tubes out and back in a couple of times, may just fix it? and is free and easy to try.

That's my second guess.
