Make sure the screw at the bottom of the body near the xlr is tight
I have seen people have issue and that was all it was

I've tightened that little screw a time or to...but, will snug it up again, soon.

Get a set of Nbobs actives!

Thought about it. But, with a newborn due in November/December and no shows being on the radar for who knows when, I'm contemplating unloading my gear and working on my dad skills and my golf game. LOL

Get a set of Nbobs actives!

For what you would pay Richard Land I would just use that money and get a set of actives from Nick.

Can you shoot me a PM with the details and contact info for Nick?

Did you decide to go that route. and if so did it resolve your issue? If so and Nick still has the actives I'd appreciate that info as I may go that route too. I have been having the same and found this topic. Doesn't happen every show. Like you I have swapped cables and now even decks (finally traded in my Busman mod R4 that I have been running since 2008 for a Zoom F6).  The R4 was on it's last legs anyway without getting serviced as the 2nd channel XLR connector wouldn't stay clicked in anymore. I only had the T mod on channels 1/2 and V mod on 3/4 which I mostly used only when I had board feeds. Talked to Doug Oade to see what he recommended and he had great things to say about the Zoom F6/F8. Checked out a moe. recording on the archive with 480s to an F6 that sounded crispy as well. Only regret so far is that they only have an app for IPhone.
