EHX Bass Micro Synthesizer - delay after powering up

[yeeshkul]

I have a question - when i power it up (EHX Bass Micro Synthesizer ), it takes about 15-20 sec to start working. It comes to life with a "whooosh" sound and then it works normally. is that what is supposed to do? I actually have this one for repair(there was a faulty CA3094 in it - the output one).

Is it something like this?

I'm fairly certain that kind of operation wasn't in the EHX design brief, so I'd say something is faulty

The best part about answering early is that I can answer the easy bits and leave technical diagnosis to knowledgable people.

yep just like on the video.

Quick bump because I was so unhelpful on this topic. I find these kinda questions get better responses when its evening of Central Time Zone
