No sound, what the heck happened to my board?

Sign in to disble this ad
I havent played my board in a week so today when I plugged it in, no sound... The board is set as

bass -> Pitch black -> octabass -> multicomp ->
groove regulator -> bb preamp -> vt bass -> gk 700rbII

they're all running on a trex fuel tank jr with the octabass daisy chained with the pitch black for power. i unplugged the vt bass and bb preamp from the chain and plugged into the groove regulator and it worked. but when i plugged the other two back in the chain, no sound. each pedal turns on, i checked the connectoins, they're all tight. im a pedal noob so idk, im guessing somethign isn't working nicely with the others. any advice?

try each pedal individually.
test all patch cables.
Add them all back one at a time, testing each time.

PITA but its what you have to do.

the pedal works until i put the groove regulator in the chain. is there a certain way im suppose to plug this thing in or arrange it? i dont understand it was working fine last week. and now it seems to only want to work when i plug my bass into it then to the amp

Maybe it's demanding too much power having it all plugged in to the T-Rex, just a thought, especially as you are sapping extra MA by also chaining the Octabass from the Pitchblack.

Probably wrong but it's worth a thought.

this.

check and re-check everything... it'll take 15 minutes.
there shouldn't be any reason why it wouldn't work with those pedals.
