    I just got one of these and I can’t see it staying in one place for long :P. There’s so much potential with this pedal.
    So far I’m finding it hard to get a consistent sound for harmony – the audio loop is so short that you can often hear the pronounced detuning. However, I’m having great results with it in the send loop of my Memory man w/hazarai.

    Hi, well I opened it up and, after looking closely at the situation, I decided to copy the OP and take the power socket outside the box. The advantage is that this gives me more room on the pedal board – the side-position of the socket is a bit silly.

    I must say that, noise-wise, the difference is night and day. The noticeable residual noise has completely disappeared.

    Thanks for the tips. Can’t believe EHX let them leave the factory with this easily-fixed issue. Very nice pedal :)

    The problem is, that the tubes are not shielded against the electromagnetic interference of the tubes.
    So I opened the pedal, took a piece of self adhesive aluminium foil, and placed it between the power supply jack and the tubes. Make sure that the foil is not touching the wires so it can’t conduct (use another layer of paper, to be sure). And that’s it, all noise is gone.

    Hi, this is good information and I would like to try it, but a little worried about frying the device (or myself) as I’m no expert. Could you post a picture or diagram of the connection points? It would really help a lot and be hugely appreciated.

    Thanks in advance :)
