    I use a pretty basic rig.
    Fender guitars into fender tube amp.b9
    Pedalboard consists of 2 overdrive pedals a delay, a chorus and of course the B9.

    I have used every configuration of routing my guitar signal through the pedals and I cannot get rid of
    an annoying sound being created by the B9. Oddly enough it’s a perfect B note. Does not sound like an organ sound just a high solid pitch sound.

    This is not just when the pedal is turned on or when any of my other pedals are turned on. The sound exists on its own regardless of what I do. I’ve tried other amps, multiple guitars and as I said have re routed my pedalboard in ever way possible.

    When running through the B9 pedal only, it works perfectly.

    I will hate to see that pedal on the shelf but I can no longer stand the annoyance. When were preforming, it’s not noticeable as long as we are playing but when we are in between songs it’s just become to embarrassing. And the sound tech is fed up with having to pull my volume after every tune.

    Any ideas? Do I have a lemon?

    Thanks for any input

    How do you power it? If it’s a daisy chain that’s your issue.

    Hey there Mister Scruffie

    Well it was a pain getting another AC supply into my pedalboard but it works.

    Many thanks.

    I definitely run a separate 9.6 into my C9 because it has to have the higher voltage and at least 200 mA available to run properly. You can fake it with some of their other pedals, but not with these. I also put mine first in the chain, as was recommended on one of the youtube video demos.
