    i bought a metal muff a couple hours ago. it sounds great right out of the box. i played for about an hour or so, shut it off and came back later on. now it just has a very light overdrive and none of the heavy gain that was there when i first plugged it in

    Have you tried it with a new battery?

    i have it hooked up with a power supply. heres wat im using it with:
    schecter C1 hellaraiser, peavey vypyr 75wat. ive got a power supply for it so theres no need for batteries. ive tried unplugging the power and waiting before i plug it back in but theres no change. my friend suggested that iit may be the way i shut everything down? can that really affect it? i either shut off the bypass first or the amp first. i dont remember which.

    I’d take it back and exchange it.

    are you using any of the on-board effect presets on the vypyr?

    no, everyting was on clean. but i figured it out. and it was a pretty stupid thing too, haha. i have emg 81/89’s in my guitar and theyre active pickups therefor the need batteries. i returned the pedal and got a brand new one, plugged it back in and it was the same, so i rechecked everything, and then realized the battery in my guitar was dead
