I’ve recently picked up a Battalion Preamp+DI pedal, and as I’ve been playing around with it I’ve noticed a ton of extra noise coming from my amp and out of the PA when going through a console. I’m playing a Fender MIM Deluxe Active Jazz bass.

Things I’ve tried:

-New battery in the bass
-Flipping the ground lift switch on the pedal into different positions
-Using the -10dB pad on the pedal intended for active bass signals (this helped a bit, but not enough to solve the problem)
-Setting the noise gate on the pedal – this cut out the noise, but at the setting it did that I had to attack the strings extra hard to get anything to come out and the signal would cut in and out

Has anybody run into a similar issue or have anything to suggest I try? I like what the Battalion can do in terms of sound shaping and the distortion channel, but at this point it is almost unusable for me.

Cheers!
