===== Digital Noise =====
In rare circumstances, ToneMatch T4S/T8S mixers may produce an audio signal that sounds distorted or “clipped.” This is likely due to corrupt data in saved scenes.
 
Recommended Actions for Issue We recommend upgrading the mixer’s firmware to v1.1.4 and rebuilding any saved scenes using the new firmware. To do this, follow these steps:
# Record the settings of any scenes you want to rebuild after the firmware upgrade. 
# Perform the firmware update to version 1.1.4
# After the firmware upgrade is complete, perform a factory reset to erase all scenes you have saved on the mixer:
#* Press and hold down Mute buttons 1–4 while powering on the mixer. Factory reset will appear on the display. The mixer is now ready to use and will no longer exhibit the issue.
#*Rebuild any scenes you want to use by referring to the settings you recorded in Step 1. Do not reload any scenes you have saved previously.
