I picked up one of these cheap the other day and am liking it pretty well. The repeats seem to have a little more poke than the Boss DM-2 that I'm used to, but I think I can work with that. The problem I'm having is that the repeats disappear if I move the mix knob below 9:00. Above 9:00, they are a little too loud for the sound I'm going for. All three pots are marked Alpha W100k, are quiet and appear to be in good working order. If anyone could offer a fix, I'd be grateful. I'm also curious about the two trimpots.

OK, I played with the trim-pots and one of them alters the wet/dry mix. It's possible a former owner messed with them. Anyway, I've got it sounding much more to my liking. I may try a small cap across the mix control to darken the repeats.
