No sound through spectracomp

[thisisswanbon]

Howdy!

Recently purchased a spectracomp on eBay that had been manufacturer refurbished (bought from musictribeuk eBay store). Came last week and looks literally like new with sealed box and stickers etc.

Was okay for a day, but now there's either no sound when engaged or less commonly a loud static blast for around 4~5 seconds followed by the expected effect. Bypassed is fine as it's true bypass.

Google brings up nothing, and I've tried updating the firmware but still the same. It's running on a cioks dc5 which runs everything else spot on.

Got it for a bargain price so I'm reluctant to send it back unless I really have to. Anyone come across this or got any other ideas?

Have you checked your cables? Are you definitely feeding it enough current? Is it daisy chained?

Tried different cables but signal is fine bypassed

Tried it on a 100ma and 300ma output on the cioks (my first thoughts were power, its current draw is <100ma)

It's not daisy chained either. It's on its own output on the cioks and I've even removed all other pedals from it just incase 🤯

Have you also reflashed the preset that is loaded? If the preset data is corrupted then a firmware reflash wouldn’t fix that. 
 

If that doesn’t work, then I’m out of ideas.

I tried a few different toneprints after the refresh. Only thing I haven't tried is beaming from my phone instead of from a pc
