uk_lefty Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 I bought a cheap Behringer pedal because well, I dont use chorus much at all but would like it as an option. On receiving the pedal it didn't bring in the effect on pressing the pedal when using a single power supply but worked fine on batteries. I plugged it in to my new multi power supply on my pedal board and it worked great at home... Took it to rehearsal and no chorus!! The effect now just doesn't come on at all... Any ideas on what I can do to try and repair? Im a complete beginner with electronics but I can do an ok job of soldering... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyquipment Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Is the polarity correct? Try different power supply? Battery ? If not it's probably dead. Throw it away Not worth repairing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk_lefty Posted October 18, 2015 Author Share Posted October 18, 2015 The retailer sent me a new one and guess what... Ok with batteries, no effect comes in when plugged in to the power supply. Incredibly annoying as I actually quite like it as an effect but won't use it enough to justify buying the Boss or other Bass Chorus pedal. I use a 9v 100ma multi-power supply which works fine with my Behringer tuner, Boss Limiter/ Enhancer and two EHX pedals.... Something's telling me trying to solve this will be more faff than its worth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because you'll possibly struggle to power four or five pedals (depending on what they are) with 100mA. Have you tried the Behringer Chorus with the power supply on its own and nothing else plugged in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk_lefty Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share Posted October 25, 2015 Hi, sorry it's a multi power supply with various outputs at 100ma and a few at larger currents. Got a replacement from the retailer and had same problem only this time didn't work at all off the power supply, worked off battery only at home and then in the rehearsal room did sweet f*** all again. Giving up on these off to buy one from a more reputable manufacturer when I have the pennies together... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darren Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 The behringer seems to be a boss copy so probably one of those? http://thetoneking.com/wp/behringer-stomp-box-cross-comparison-chart/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
