Hi guys,

I have a Nano Small Stone I recently bought that seems to have a signal leakage problem. When the pedal is engaged or in “true” bypass I can hear a faint ticking sound in time with each full phase sweep. I can speed up or slow down the ticking by turning the phase rate knob.

I am a little confused as to why this is happening at all in true bypass. Having played a little with 3pdt switches I can’t see why there would be any exra signal when the pedal is not engaged..

My guess (and it is only a guess) is that there may be some circuit leakage and/or a grounding issue.

To make things even more interesting, the online store that sold me the pedal promply sent me a replacement that has exactly the same problem! Perhaps a bad batch?

Has anyone else had similar problems with the Nano Small Stone?
Any suggestions as to how I might fix the problem? I have read of older Small Stone pedals having a similar problem on this forum. Any help would be much appreciated anyway!

Cheers,

Milo
