X0X Sqaure Wave - Sometimes sounds thin

Post by Dazbo »

Hi
Im Dazbo,im a seasoned X0x user and built my own x0x way back in 2008,
Untill recently its been fine - However recently,a few months back i thought the waveform selector switch was playing up,...sometimes the squarewave would sound thin,like 1 legged,..
Flicking the waveform selector switch a few times and all was ok,
However now its happening more and more regular and for a longer period,and flicking the switch doesnt fix it,usually after a while,maybe half an hour the fault go`s away on its own . .
Its only happening on the squarewave,the saw sounds fine - before i open the box up does anyone know or possibly guide me where to look,im thinking maybe theres a Capacitor on its way out ?
Any heads up will be appreciated.
Daz

You can test bypassing the switch all together, I suspect a faulty switch.
