:thumb: yeah, i just though it makes sense: most gigging guitarists will have a muting tuner pedal, so it makes sense to me to find another use for something you already have (rather than having to buy something else).

the only problem i see with the blend control idea, would be that people would probably complain about ‘volume drops’…
eg. turning up the processed/voice output will lead to the instrument signal output being attenuated…
so what you’d really need would be a level control for each output… that would be a pretty cool idea i think, but of course that will mean that EHX would have to cut corners somewhere else to keep it in the standard 6-knob XO format – unless they changed all the controls to sliders (like on the POG).

like i implied earlier, with such a pedal as this there are only a certain amount of features that can be packed in and there may be a compromise in deciding which ones are left out.
but it is easy to find a solution using another piece of equipment (a mute, tuner, A/B switch etc) or… i’ve just had another though…

if you have a volume pedal with a tuner output, you could run that before the Voice Box; with the tuner output going to the VB = foot-controlled blending! just a thought. :thumb:

Roddy Woomble – Idlewild and various solo or collaborative projects.

Mark Lanegan!!! Screaming Trees -> countless collaborations and solo work covering a broad spectrum of styles.

in the manual, it lists various uses for the pedal and at different points says you can plug it into other pedals, an amp (or two), tape recorder, mixer or power amp.

so, it will work with both inputs, but i’d probably use the line input on the ISA.

thanks. :thumb:

in that setting, the dry guitar goes through untouched, and the processed signal is a kind of mellow-organ-swell…
it’s sounds great on it’s own but combined with other effects (trem and/or delay) it’s even better, or with the fuzz it sounds really synthy.

from what i gather, it has a digital delay and analogue delay in parallel, with a control to blend between them.

i’m not sure how it works in practise though… particularly with the tap tempo…
are the digital and analogue delays in sync with each other? it seems doubtful to me as the digital delay can go up to 3 seconds or something. i don’t know of many analogue delays with more than half a second delay time.

i’ve had the same issue here with a Hazarai and some other pedals (Akai Headrush being one).
there can be added background noise or a high pitched whine when running these pedals from a daisy chain (such as the One-Spot) or power supply with un-isolated outputs.
however, i have found that some combinations of pedals work fine – i have around 50 pedals and there are only a handful which the Hazarai doesn’t like sharing power with.

after looking at the specs for the T-Rex power supplies your using, it looks like the 9v outputs on the Fuel Tank Classic are not isolated and only output 500ma in total, so running the two named EHX pedals alone could already be straining the power supply. that could lead to noise in itself, even more so if the either (or both) of pedals object to sharing power.

the Fuel Tank Junior HAS isolated outputs, but they only supply 120ma… so that could well be under-powering the EHX pedals.

“Is there any way to solve this?”

well, you’ve found the solution already: use the supplied PSU.

the other option would be to buy another power supply, which has isolated 9v outputs providing 200ma (or more)… but obviously you don’t want to do that after already investing in the Fuel Tanks and One-Spot.

no problem. :thumb:

was there any specific reason you wanted to know whether it was true-bypass?
