    Hello,
    I have tried doing a system restore a few times but the Pitchfork+ presets LED starts blinking even if I haven’t changed any settings, like it has a mind of its own.
    I am powering this unit with a Voodoo Lab PP 4×4 into a 9v 400mA input. It was working fine on my other pedalboard with a Strymon Zuma which has a 500mA 9v input. Since the pedal only draws ~150mA it seems like power should not be an issue.
    I’ve tried saving the presets again but after half a minute the presets LED starts blinking again. It is maddening.
    I bought the pedal new 8/21 and the version is 1.00.
    What needs to be done to make the presets LED stay lit solid? Could it be a ‘global’ setting? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    The Pitch Fork+ doesn’t draw 150mA, it draws just under 120mA.

    Thanks for the quick reply.
    I had never used the original power supply when I bought it new (have used this pedal probably under 20 hours) but the problem was intermittent so I let it slide for a long while.
    I just plugged in the PF+ with the original power supply and the blinking begins after a few seconds and persists after a factory restore, persists no matter what I try, so apparently the blinking problem is not related power since it exists across every power supply I’ve tried.
    Whatever it is, it’s not working properly. Perhaps it is related to the micro. It would be great to get the blinking to stop. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.
