BROKEN OCTABASS

CactusBass · #1 05-07-2010, 06:24 PM

I have NO clue whats wrong with it. Powers up, and has a signal when the LED is on and when it isnt on. (activated and bypass). The normal and octave pots seem to just make the signal louder...any ideas??? Am i screwed?

Sounds like a similar problem that is happening w/ a EBS unichorus that I sold on here, and am now gettting back to get fixed for the buyer....check out the thread:

ha....patience grasshopper!

I'll probably have a better idea when I get the Unichorus back, which should happen in a couple of days. Were you running your pedal with a power supply or a 9 volt battery? Try it with a battery if you haven't - the Unichorus in question works fine with a battery, not on a power supply though. Maybe it's as simple as opening it up to see if something became unattached?

are you saying when you plug it in to power supply the led turns on and theres a signal passing through the pedal, but with a battery the pedal actually works?
I have a disconnected battery wire..ill try to solder it.

Yep - thats what I'm saying. I'll let you know more when I try it - hopefully I can help you.

Nothing??

JTreehorn · #9 05-14-2010, 02:41 PM

no - turns out everything was ok. How did you make out? Have you tried different power supplies?
