MiniDexed Fault Finding

I've started a "fault finding" page on the Wiki. Do have a look and let us know what is missing! :)

(I could add a lot more about USB or MIDI or general usage, but I was running out of steam writing it up - I might come back to it after a break!!)

Great idea. Maybe call it "Troubleshooting"?

I didn't want that word in the title, it might be triggering for some people.

Very good, I'm impressed. 👍🎖️

Maybe that would be another point for the rubric:

• The audio output of the DAC is noisy: The quality of the power supply affects the sound quality. With a power bank or a good USB power supply for the Raspberry Pi, there should be no noise at the audio output. (USB Cable?)

Is there an issue with ground if powering from a USB battery bank or similar? Just curious as presumably you lose a reference GND and some USB power supplies don't pass GND through either...?

So far I have not noticed any problems with a power bank.
