    I recently purchased an english muff’n and i must say that the unit sounds absolutely brilliant! However, when i plug the bastard into my pedalboard, it makes alot of hissing, humming, and the usual guitar noises that make the guitar playing experience rather unpleasant. Was wandering if anyone else was having the same problem, and i’m really not looking forward to buying a noise suppressor, but if worst comes to worst, i’ll buy one. When by itself, it sounds great; no significant noise. When plugged into the pedalboard, and i turn the thing on, it makes alot of unpleasant noise. If anyone can help me, it would mean alot. Thank you.

    if it helps, my set up goes: gibson lp std->pedalboard(skb ps-25 9v powered) boss tuner->wah->MUFF’N->line 6 uber metal->ehx small clone->boss phaser->boss delay-> roland 120 jazz chorus.

    it may be your wah. I experience noise with my muff’s due to my wah not being true bypass.

    yeah
    wahs can have notoriously bad bypasses

    Also plug the Muff’n on it’s own and see if there is any noise.

    always a good strategy

    Unplug all other pedals and run the muffn direct into your amp, if there/s no noise add one pedal back in the chain at a time, this will find the noisy pedal or the pedal that is creating noise in conjunction with the muffin.

    Yeah that too, check your cables by running your guitar straight into your amp, check all patch cables this way too.

    Place the Muffin physically away from the Wah…
    (the x-former located left of the footswitch inside the tube-pedals may induce some hum into the coil inside the wah-pedal).
