    I have a C9 pedal which I bought used. I’m not surprised to experience some degree of transient noise with an effect like this but with the C9 it’s so loud as to overwhelm the musical sound and render the pedal pretty much useless. On electric guitar it’s almost as if I’m tapping a pickup polepiece with a screwdriver at the start of every note. Whether I’m playing gently as possible with my fingers or using a plectrum makes no difference. Surely this can’t be normal for this type pedal. Anyone else experienced this?

    Comments, suggestions much appreciated. Thanks.

    The C9 and B9 organs have a percussive attack and that was emulated in the pedal.
    Are you having that issue with the compact sound on the pedal as well?

    Does your pedal sound like the demo we did?

    Make sure your amp is clean and back of the high end as that may make your issue worse.
    Make a demo so we can hear what you are getting.
