Searching for answers here. I've got a TAC Matchless that has developed a radio station on the monitor buss, that bleeds to the master L/R outs. Here's what's odd:
If I have nothing connected to the monitor out jacks, all is well. No monitor capability, but the master outs are clean. If I just connect a cable to the monitor outs-radio. -This is whether or not the other end of the cable is connected to gear. I've tried isolating possible ground loops, different cables, no other outs on the console have this issue. My workaround has been to use a pair of aux sends, which works fine but I want to get it taken care of.
I'm fairly sure at this point that the problem is in the master module itself. But I'm open to suggestions. What would be the suspect parts that could've gone bad? Caps, chips, cold solder joints?
Any help would be great.
