Weird indeed!! Hope it never happens again :)

Sorted!!!!!!!!!!!!! Stripped the unit down and tested the socket, seemed fine. Gave it a clean with contact cleaning and put it back together again. It now works as normal!! Flipping weird, guess there was something in the socket causing the weird behaviour. But so glad to have it working again, had a bad nights sleep worrying about it. Cheers for everyone's input, Phil

It only happens with an external pedal attached. If I remove it and use the internal pedal toe clicked to Exp2 it works as it should. I'm going to get the screwdrivers out and have a look at the socket.

Just tried that - exp2 works like a volume pedal even on a blank preset. I put in a volume block and it automatically assigned exp2 to it. When I deleted the block it still operated as if it were still assigned. I've tried different expression pedals and leads, it still works the same.

I have a Line 6 expression pedal and a M-Audio one. Both show the same behaviour.

Update 2! Remembered I had a spare expression pedal - fitted it, exact same behaviour. The weird thing is I can reverse the polarity of the pedal and it acts accordingly with the delay mix but it still does the volume fade out when I push the pedal up. I would say volume drop is now about 80%!!! When I unplug the expression pedal volume is back to normal. Weird!! I have a gig on Friday so will set up a button to toggle between two levels of delay so I can leave the expression pedal unplugged but I'm pretty worried to be honest :(

Update.......so I did a factory reset and restore. Even worse now, exp2 volume all over the place. If I unplug the expression pedal then it's back to normal and can control the delay mix but toe tapping exp1 to adjust exp2. So is my expression pedal the issue? The fact the pedal changes the parameters correctly makes me think it's not the pedal itself??

Hi - I gig with a Helix LT and use exp2 to control the mix of delay on my patches. It's been working great but I have just noticed that when pushing forward on the pedal the volume is dropping. This is the same on every patch - I have check to see if I have accidentally assigned something to the pedal that shouldn't be there but I can't see anything. I even tried using a blank patch and the volume still changes when I move the pedal even though the patch is empty! I'm lost for ideas, can anyone help? Thanks Phil

Not had a go yet but there are some great pitch shift effects in the Go - also the ring modulators. If you add in small amounts with the dry signal you're going to get in the ball park pretty quickly. Hope this helps Phil

Nick Thanks for your reply - my issue is when I push the expression pedal all the way down when looking on the pod go editor it doesn't go to the down position but bottoms out at about 15%. Full forward is correct, but full back isn't all the way home. So if I set mix to 0% when all the way back the pedal never reaches 0, more like%. So can I calibrate the pedal to establish the range that the Pod Go recognises or do I need to find an expression pedal with a pot on the side to tweak the range? Cheers Phil

Hi Been enjoying my Pod Go - I use a second expression pedal when playing live to control the depth and feedback of delays. Is there any way to calibrate the expression pedal? Mine is a Line 6 pedal but it doesn't go all the way "off" if you know what mean? I can't find any info on this anywhere. Cheers Phil
