Ryan, did you get this fixed? I have a deluxe memory that I just love and it also have a very annoying and loud crackling noise – it goes away when the blend is turn fully counter clockwise (making it useless). I will call the EHX service tomorrow.
BTW….I also bought a memory man nano, and it is pretty good, but small knobs and just does not seem to have the same smooth range across the delay and depth the old 24V deluxe has -SO I WANT TO GET IT FIXED (crying)….

let me know how your saga turned out please.

Mark
