40hz Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 (edited) Hi all, A quick one here. I've just purchased a Wampler Ego compressor pedal (the full fat one, not mini) and with all controls set at noon, there is some definite distortion being added into the mix that only increases when I boost the sustain (which is annoying as I bought it due to its more coloured squish it's capable of). I've also tried completely turning off sustain and attack, and when you sweep the blend from dry to FX, it starts to add harmonic distortion. Not wild amounts, but a noticeable 'hair' all the same. It's a brand new battery in the pedal, is this normal? Edit - I should add this is using my Modulus Flea and going through the FX loop of my TC BH550.

40hz Posted January 20, 2022 Author Share Posted January 20, 2022 As an update, I've also turned down the trim pot inside the Bartolini NTBT on my Flea from about 65% to about 30% boost. Still getting dirt when the Wampler is engaged? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
