It’s not so much the click from the footswitch that bothers me. The volume at ‘gig level’ covers this up no problem. It’s the electrical pop which will be heard as those kind of interferance artifacts always seem to come at full volume. As I said in my previous post, it made me cringe to hear such an awful sound rip through my amp at such a volume
I don’t really want to start replacing switches but I’d be interested enough to take a look.
If I can’t find an answer to this problem, or it doesn’t ‘soften’, I’ll probably try the resistor method mentioned above and elsewhere.
Hello from a new member,
I was looking for a thread such as this cos i also have the popping/clicking that seems prevalent with the EHX pedals.
I have the memory toy and worm and both pop. Does anyone think that it’s something that’ll be more pronounced when new and will wear off in time and use?
Putting them through my Carvin Legacy’s effects send sounds great but made me wince when I switched the pedals on and off.
If necessary then I’ll take the administrators advice of soldering a resistor in, but, to be honest I wasn’t expecting to do DIY on such pricey pedals! If it doesn’t harm the sound then why don’t EHX solder it in as standard?
So will it ‘soften’ in time? Anybody?
cheers
Martyn
