That's what happens with the compressor in my Orange 4Stroke amps. It's supposed to do that on the amp head. It could be just the way Orange build their compressors.
Email Orange and ask them, they have alway been very helpful.
Yowzer, that would drive me nuts 🤣.
SKB shallow case? Does it all fit ok and does it leave space in the rear to store the power and speaker cables?
Cool looking bass.
Sell it.
I had the same issue so sold it pretty quickly. I now own a Fusion 550 which I think is a better sounding amp, it fits my requirements with not a lot of fiddling about.
Excellent bass, I gigged mine for years and recorded our last album with it. Great quality, pickups and preamp sounded awesome. I only sold it fund a BBPH which is also great but doesn't have the same snarl... only bass I've previously owed that I'd buy again without a concern.
Used in anger last night for an audition with a new Post Punk/Dark Wave project. Wow... it sounded awesome!
Yamaha BBPH through EBS BS Deluxe and a Boss CE5. Perfect, the band thought it sounded brilliant and I was offered the spot. Very happy with myself.
Finally bought one after many years thinking about it. Sounds great, I definitely prefer it to the Legacy 800 that I owned for a few month before punting it on. New strings on the Streamer and neighbours away on holiday... my fillings are now loose.
Yamaha 734a into EBS BS deluxe/ce5 chorus/dd3 delay into Orange 4Stroke 500/Barefaced Four10.
Sold the bass and 4Stroke when the band broke up a month before Covid happened... band got back together not so long ago, bought a 4Stroke 300 because I couldn't find a 500, definitely doesn't sound the same, the beefy doom has gone.
