I've already reached out to Synergy, but figured I'd ask here too while I wait for them to respond.
Hopefully you can follow the longer version below as it involved swapping 2 SYN2's between 2 amps to test out. The quick version is both units stopped working immediately after I put the Randall SL+ module I just got into each. But the SL+ works fine in my RM100 head; Though I'm not going to put it in again for fear them module may fry the head. I did a quick visual inspection and didn't see any burn marks or blown fuses. Didn't hear any pops or the like when they stopped working, just silence.
So the long version.
I have 2 SYN2 units (we’ll call Unit1 & unit2) that are not working properly; there is no sound from either. Each unit is set up to run through the effects loop of different amps (We’ll call them Amp1 & Amp2). So Unit1 with Amp1 and Unit2 with Amp2. When I previously used Unit1/Amp1 it was working properly. Today I went to use them and no sound. When Unit1 was removed from Amp1, Amp1 worked properly. To ensure Unit2/Amp2 was working I checked them and they were working. I then setup Unit1 with Amp2 and no sound. I also moved Unit2 to Amp1 and all worked properly. I turned everything off swapped a module from Unit1/Amp2 to Unit2/Amp1. Turned on Unit2/Amp1 and now no sound from Unit2. With the SYN2 units not hooked to the amps, both amps worked properly. At this point both unit1 and Unit2 do not appear to be working not working. The common factor between both is the module that I put in each just prior to the SYN2s not working. The module is a Randall SL+. This module appears to work correctly when placed in my Randall RM100 amp.
Any ideas on when the problem could be and how to fix it?
