    Hi All –

    I have a new Flanger Hoax. I had it in my signal chain and was having noise issues. The pedal is producing noise even when disengaged in the effect output.

    Do I have a defective unit? It is supposed to be true bypass.

    Rob sounds like a ground loop.
    What power supply are you using?

    Hi – Thank you for the reply.

    I am using what should be the correct power supply, I think –

    input: 120V AC60Hz 0.2A
    Output: 18V DC 500mA

    When the pedal is disengaged, you can still hear the sweeping / swooping of the flange. It’s definitely the pedal causing the sound.

    If it is an EHX supply and not a daisy chain supply then something is weird.
    Please contact service and see what they say.
