    Hey, I managed to get mine working. It was doing my head in.

    1. Australia (where I am) runs on 240VAC. The PSU supplied had input of only 100VAC, so the PSU supplied was effectively useless for international usage.
    2. I tried a number of generic chargers, 9V @ 500mA, 800mA and 1000mA.
    3. These PSU’s powered other pedals perfectly fine. Not the DMB – had the issues above. Thought the unit was faulty
    4. When I was in the US recently, I brought the DMB with me to do an easy return. Whilst there, I did a quick test, using the PSU that came with the unit – ‘VOILA’ it worked fine.
    5. Came back to OZ, and got a 9v 200mA regulated PSU and got it working.
    6. The next week after playing with it a little, realised I didnt even like it after all that – I sold it in favour fo the Digitech Timebender (best. delay. ever).

    Hope this helps

    Thanks OPIV, but there is no delayed wet signal AT ALL, regardless of where I put the blend knob.
    If the blend is 100% wet, you should be able to hear a delayed signal. There is nothing.

    I kept the wave on square just so I could demonstrate that the delay circuit appears to work (so you can hear the beeps).

    As long as the blend knob is not 100% dry, there should be some delay effect audible through the amp. There is none. This is the problem. The unit just doesnt work, and is about as useful as a paperweight at present.

    Can someone from EHX please respond to this.

    I suppose, but there is no guitar coming through at all when blend is up full, just the clock beeps.

    Everything seems pretty snug on that circuit. Its like as soon as the pedall engages, eiter the input does not connect to the delay signal path, or the wet signal does not connect to the output jack. I cant check under the main circuit board asit all seems locked down.

    carefully unscrewed and replaced. no joy.

    no delay!

    when i turn up all the knobs you can hear a beeping coming through my amp. the osciliting rate changes when i turn the depth knob. the pitch changes when i adjust the delay knob. the tab seems to work. but noy guitar signal coming through. All of this was happening earlier.

    yikes!
