    Thanks for the response, much appreicated. On the Peter Stroud video demo (saw on youtube) he doesn’t seem to move the volume knobs when switching between Normal and Sqsh mode, and also both modes seem pretty quiet and hum/noise free.

    Can you still hear a background hum on Normal mode when the pre gain is turned down to 0? My Black Finger hums even when it’s quiet, so it’s unusable especially for recording vocals or clean guitars.

    I just got a new Black Finger and it is MUCH louder in Normal Mode than in SQSH mode. There is a very loud hum even when the pre gain is low. SQSH mode is very quiet compared to NORMAL. I’ve tried electric guitar and vocals and both are unusable in NORMAL mode for recording.

    Has anyone else experienced this or did I get a DUD? I have 5 days to return this…

    Thanks.

    Thanks for the link.

    Do you (or anyone else) know if I can get hold of this AC adaptor in the UK? I need one for the coming week so it’s not going to arrive in time.

    Also now that I look at it I think the problem is one of the two pins (that plug into the mic pre). The smaller pin is very wobbly and it looks like it’s cracked. A freind suggested that I should crack it and then resolder the pin so that it’s solid again. Is that a good idea?
