    Johhny where are you located?

    i’m from manila, in the philippines. i had it repaired by a local pedal builder. the problem of the crackling and clipping went away a bit but the flanger sounded different, not as wild as it used to, and the knobs responded differently then it originally did. so i decided to try to try to look for the original settings again myself, and just gave up out of sheer frustration.

    i don’t really know what each trim pot does but i could intuit that when i moved it a certain way that the clipping and the crackling would go away a bit. maybe i’ll just mess around with it again one of these days.

    oh btw, i took a picture of the pots before i messed with it, so that’s a bit of a ray of sunshine. but the problem seems to be that the adjustments are hairline increments, so its gonna take quite a bit of noodling.

    anyway, just thought i’d post it here to discourage anyone else from trying this themselves. i don’t recommend it.

    Your best bet now is to write Chip Scooter at:
    info@ehx.com
    or give him a call at:
    (718) 937-8300
    He will advise you how to get your Hoax back up and running.

    ok, so messed with the trim pots and am now the owner of a useless FH.

    do not try to mess with the trim pots inside. learn from my mistake. :(

    i did sir, but to no avail.

    there are no repair centers in my country. oh well, i guess i’ll just figit with the six knobs until i get a good result.

    so depressing… :(

    i agree with the 12 0′ clock blend actually being at around 10:30. it solves the volume problem a bit.

    i wonder if there is some kind of mod for the volume drop issue which seems to be the common problem with ehx peds.

    another problem with the smmh is that this damn thing has so many usable sounds that if i were fed up with this volume drop thing, i can’t think of any single pedal that is this reasonably priced and has this many features. sigh…

    hey, anyone ever try to mess with the trim pots inside the hoax? does that do anything?

    i opened my bassballs a few months back and messed with the trim pots inside that control the twin filter frequencies and got curious about the hoax’s trim pots.
