Alun Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 Hi. I've been using a B2.1u for a while without complaint but when I turned up at last Friday's gig, there was a high pitched digital whine after ebery note, even in standby. I took the unit out of my signal chain and everything was fine but I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced? It may be down to a crappy power lead ( a no-name 9v adaptor daisy chaining a few pedals) but I'm curious. Cheers, Alun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Alun[/quote] Hi Alun, I had that with my B2 once and it was something I never quite worked out the cause of to be honest. At first I thought it was caused by weak batteries, so I changed them. I also thought it might have been caused by something else in my fx chain. I even considered the fact that I might have been caused by having too many of the B2's own fx happening at one time. But because I changed the batteries, moved the B2 in my fx chain and took some of the fx out of the patches, I never knew for sure what the root cause was. Hopefully, you'll be more methodical than I was and work it out properly! Nik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alun Posted May 28, 2007 Author Share Posted May 28, 2007 Thanks Nik, I had half an hour this afternoon to have a play with my pedalboard and seem to have cured it by using a seperate power supply for the Zoom. Will see if this cure lasts or if I've just been lucky Cheers, Alun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 £10 says it was a power problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alun Posted May 30, 2007 Author Share Posted May 30, 2007 Funnily enough....£10 was the cost of a new adaptor which seems to have fixed the problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
