I’ve just purchased one of the above, and am enjoying getting to grips with all of the (many!) options.

A couple of things that have stumped me at the moment, which I’m hoping are just things I’m missing are:

a) getting a totally unmodulated delay. Even with the Decay fully counter-clockwise the signal still seems to have a mild reverb/chorus effect compared to the clean signal. Is that working as designed, do I need a hearing test, or is there an interaction with the Filter setting that may be causing this?

b) slight signal/volume drop between active and bypassed states. When engaged the pedal does seem to sap a small amount of signal/have a lower overall output than when bypassed. Obviously if it’s used throughout a song that’s not a problem, but it’s a bit of a niggle when you want to kick it in and out for different segments. Is this normal for this pedal, or is it potentially down to my setup (details below)?

The EHX Hazarai is in an effects loop from a Laney Lionheart L5T (mostly – either way it’s in a loop).

Pre-input is: Boss TU-2 tuner, Boss FV-50H volume, TC Electronics MojoMojo overdrive

In the loop: Boss V-Wah, Boss CE-5 Chorus, EHX Hazarai, Boss DD-6

All pedals only cabled for mono output, regardless of whether the pedal is stereo capable or not.

Any hints and tips greatly appreciated.
