Behringer K450FX amp: very loud white noise randomly appearing. Turning FX to zero does not kill it but surpresses it. What can I do?

Needs service, if the inputs to amp are clean (test that yet)>)

Testimonial: "Sure I tested the inputs, it does it randomly even without individual instrument FX opened. Noise is somehow master FX related."

    well, some fail for bad capacitors inside.
    they get old and leak or dry you and fail.
    a shop checks all that.
    made in 2006 , so is 13 years old but looking at it , I see it is older design.
    those tone sliders say tom me 80s design.
    using POT sliders, that love to get noisy.
    when it makes noise with no inputs try wiggling all those knobs. to see if they are related to the noise.
    again why not find a shop to fix it?
    Most things made this old are failing now.
    Unless serviced by a professional.
    this guy(I searched for you) show
    maker has no service manual. bad that is.

    it sells used for $40 so , spending, $100 to fix $40 IDK who that works.

    what can you, do?
    1: upgrade to newer AMP.. hint one that has good support book unlike this THING.
    2: have it repaired.
    3: open it, (no AC) look for things burned
    clean it out, look for drink spills that got inside and damaged it, the damages can be very large. at the link above told. the caps can all be changed out, "wiki CAP plague,"
    1999 to 2007 , yours is 2006 so.... sure. caps. loved to be bad then.
    caps can do this.
    dry out. (only meters find this)
    split ,crack , explode or leak green electrolyte juice.
    they can short, and then other parts burn.
    (called collateral damage)
    they can also leak (electrical leak) and make huge louds noises. even intermittently
    this is what all old electronics, do.
    look inside and see all those parts that can fail, it is not trivial at all.

    it's old and labor here(USA) is not cheap.
    most times things old and cheap or worth zero broke, we then buy something better , gee even something with a service manual.
    that is what I do buy only things with real support. full. (nice things, not toys)

SOURCE: hd tv but no hdmi

Sounds like more of a tv speaker problem then your ps3. You can change the audio settings on the XMB dashboard of your ps3. I think they are default at max.

K450FX. Why does second channel have low signal output?

There is a problem with the internal circuitry. There may be one of more components that have failed or weakened.

I bought a behringer bxl3000t yesterday and when I plug it to the wall it gives me a pretty big noise, even when the bass is not plugged in, If I turn the amp on without anything plugged and all the knobs...

Since you just bought this, exercise your warranty (assuming you bought this new). The amp probably will have a slight buzz with nothing connected... the question is how loud it is. If you can hear it loud at five feet, that is too much. If you bought this used, prepare to have it serviced at a shop.

When i have my FX on and sending to main they make a horrible clicking (shorting out) sound. if I push the main mix button it shuts off the effects and the noise goes away...bad side...then I have no...

Check the 5 volts to the FX unit, If the voltage is low, the FX processor will keep reseting generating clicks, In a different product, the 5 volt filter cap was degraded and voltage dipped down to 4.5 volts causing resets.

I just purchased A behringer PMP4000. It has built in effects. When I follow the steps to add fx , as soon as I start turning up the fx send, It sounds like sweeping wind through the mains. How do I use...

Check the FX to main level to make sure it is not too high. Also check the main FX fader level. Try turning each of these down and see if that corrects the issue. The FX fader should control the volume level of the FX globally (mon sends as well as main outs), and the FX to main should only affect the mains output. Make sure FX to mon1 and FX to mon2 are turned all the way down.
Also check what FX program your using and that the FX IN button is depressed, try starting w/ #10 (small room) and see how that sounds.

I have Behringer PMP 3000 2 channels not working fx not working and fan not working but unit turns on ok

Fan speed depends on temp sensors. If doesn't run at all when unit is loaded, take in for repair immediately.

If FX window changes with the control, chances are you have not set the controls properly. You need to havew THREE places turned up for effects: The FX knob in the desired channel(s), The FX slider and finally the knob to send the FX to the mains and/or monitors.

OFTEN the stereo channels aopear to not be working because of the A/B switch between the RCA and 1/4 inch jacks.

You did not give me enough info regarding which channels appear to not work.
