Hello,
Accidentally wrote over a loop I had , so I tried to recover it from the SD Card (FAT32) but nothing was on the SD Card apart from LOOP 00 with nothing contained inside.
Is there any chance the loops are still on the card somehow ?
I just got the pedal but had to give a thumbs up. In many cases previously I just avoided using
single coil modes. I’m not sure how you could so thoroughly filter 60Hz hum (and probably harmonics)
without seriously affecting actual signal.
It’s not perfect at cancelling everything of course but hats off to the engineer who designed it.
Far cry from the annoying noise gates and such things we used to default to.
Considering all of these, want a compact overdrive with a dry blend.
Any thoughts on the pros and cons in terms of tone?
Where are you in South America exactly?
Damn, if it’s broken that sucks since I’m back in South America at the moment.
Not 100% sure but I’m under the impression that it’s been like this since I got it, I was using a Boss RC-5 with a footswitch since I didn’t have my old 720 with me on tour and ended up trading for a brand new 1440 while on tour and immediately noticed that the first loop wasn’t lasting for the entirety of the layering part I mentioned.
So I still think of it as my “new looper”
If it’s just a broken potentiometer is there any chance that a local tech could service it?
Hello. I own an ExH HOG 1, whose input gain slider is busted and the signal intermittently gets weaker than unity level. A little wiggling of the slider does bring back the full signal, though only for a few seconds before the intermittent cut-offs return. My friend who is familiar with the essentials of how pedals work has diagnosed that the pot for the input gain slider is indeed faulty and also is of a different colour than the rest of the pots on the unit, hence the conclusion that the original pot was replaced at a certain time prior to my acquisition of the unit. He urged me to seek out the information regarding the exact RESISTANCE VALUE of the input gain pot, and whether it’s linear or logarhythmic? He also added that Alpha is the default manufacturer of slide pots of ExH pedals, whose varieties we’ve managed to find in local stores, since they are quite abundant. I would appreciate it if any of y’all can tell me what type and resistance value I should be looking for. Thank you so much.
Thanks for the tip about a pre-amp. I have a headphone amp kit I build a while back that I’m going to try:
https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/banzai-v2-cmoy-headphone-amplifier-173543067
My main concern is blowing up the pedal, power amp or speaker because of incompatibility.
My plan is the output the pedal to headphone amp then output headphone amp to power amp (9-20V 20W TDA2030A Class AB Mono Power Audio Amplifier). I will report back with my results.
Is there a portable pre amp you would recommend to use with the power amp and speaker listed above?
Update.
I switched my amp to this 9-20V 20W TDA2030A Class AB Mono Power Audio Amplifier.

And the speaker is now:
Tang Band W2-800SL 2″ Aluminum/Mg Full Range Speaker Driver
https://www.parts-express.com/Tang-Band-W2-800SL-2-Aluminum-Mg-Full-Range-Speaker-Driver-264-807?quantity=1
I’m using a 1/4 jack shielded patch cable to connect v256 pedal output to amp with a 3.5 mm mono jack to connect to the amp.
When I tested setup (no blue smoke was released!), but the sound volume is quite low. For example if I connect an iPod to this amp and speaker I can fill the whole room with sound, but using the v256 pedal I barely can fill my desk with sound.
Is there anything else I can do to increase the volume besides getting a more powerful amp? Am I using the wrong cabling/adaptor to ouput sound to amp?
Jimmy please double check your spam folder.
If not I will send a message off to them Monday when they are back at work.
thanks, I did. havent heard anything back yet
Hello, I’m having another issue with my 1440, whenever I start overdubbing the first loop eventually gets erased or disappears, no matter if I have the overdub knob dimed it ends up disappearing. Again another issue that wasn’t there with the 720. Once more defeated by new features I’m not really using other wise, the layering and stacking of loops is the main reason I use it, one of our songs has a part where there are stabbing chords looped and then wailing bends drenched in reverb sound kind of like a siren over a buzzing alarm…but after the first wailing overdub the stabs just disappear. Am I doing anything wrong? In the manual it says that if I set the overdub knob at max then previous audio levels should remain constant but that definitely is not the case in practice. Stacking more than just two layers is a big part of the fun of using a looper, and once again my “upgraded” looper isn’t performing as my previous unit. I really appreciated the firmware update that let each bank remember the FX and settings, so if there’s any way you guys could look into this issue I’d be grateful once again.

They can help you and we have service in the UK.
I’ve just got hold of a second hand EH4800 phaser and the ‘color’ switch is completely broken.
I understand it’s a DPDT on-on switch. Do you know where I can get a replacement in the UK? Worse case scenario is that I solder some jumpers under the switch to keep it permanently in one of the two positions as the switch is not conducting at all. If this were the case, which position should I choose?
