Triaxis noise and HUMMMM

[jrlayn2it]

I have had a TA for several years. It is humming incredibly loud with no input. I have taken out of rack, used with different power amp, changed out tubes numerous times. Still have the crazy hum.. I can gate it, but this requires a huge threshold and affects my playing dynamic. Why is this thing so loud with the hum and an all in one head with no input is dead silent. Too many $$ have been dropped to deal with amatuerish noise problems.. Are there any techs in the southeast that service Mesa, specifically a TA? I am a working bloke so I can't go without for a long period of time.. Any help will be greatly appreciated.. E me directly at

Does it happens only on LD 2 presets!? I have this problem too

Only lead 2.. I can push the crap out of lead 1 and get a little hiss, but when I try to use same settings on lead 2, huge noise. I am a little pissed at the whole thing.. checking into ab engle midi pre..

Sounds like there's an internal problem. I'll take it off your hands if you decide to get rid of it.

I find the triaxis very sensitive to mains voltages and the quality thereof. But yes, it is excessively noisy. I used it on tour once and I think we got round it by using two (!) noise gates. One on the input (a boss ns-2 works just fine) to gate the guitar input, and then another on the output.

I am going to be trying a decimator (ISP) with it, as I accidentally blew one half of my last noise gate by plugging the power amp output into it (blonde moment)

But they can be tamed, but you do need a pre and a post noise gate.

send back to mesa and check for noise level..I think the tranny is the culprit..
