Home › Forums › Help/Technical Questions › Big Muff Pi V9- Volume and fuzz loss
When I engage the Big Muff, there is a significant loss in volume. Even with the volume knob at 100 percent, it is barely audible. Also, in the signal that can be heard, it seems to have lost the distortion/fuzz. Any suggestions on what the problem/problems may be? Thanks for taking the time to read this and hopefully suggest a solution.
Bump.
I have this same problem
Same here! Also the LED flickers, I have checked the circuit with a volt metre and I can’t find if its a dodgy component annoying
what are u guys using with your muffs. these pedals are very picky about what other pedals go in-line with them whether they are engaged or not, truebypass or buffered. last week i put a wah at the front of my pedal rig and it seriouslty affected the volume of my muff so i took it off and all is fine again. i also use a pog2 with it to but i can only get a good sound from my muff if the muff goes after the pog.
its also a good idea not to go crazy with the tone knob as if u go past half way u are in danger of compressing the sound too much and so losing volume.
tbh its about trial and error, getting the balance between what sound u want and the compromises u inevitably must make to achieve that. this is something only u need to be happy with if it works for u then thats what matters .
hope this helps. but if u are using a muff on its own then maybe your muff is on its way out or needs a service
