  1. Hi Soundog I hope you're well. I'm having trouble with my old Variax 700. There's a grumbling, crackle, squeal type noise underneath the output of the guitar sound. This is severely exacerbated when it's put through a heavily soaked distortion. Any ideas on what this might be? All help gratefully received! :0)

      Oooh. That doesn't sound good. I've never had that problem, but if I had to guess I would wonder if it might be 1) defective component in circuit board; 2) bad power; 3) radio/light/power interference.

       

      Test 2 by trying any alternate variax power you can (XPS footswitch? battery?) Test 3 by eliminating any potential interference from USB, USB hub, etc. Keep signal as direct and clean as possible.

       

      If none of that changes anything, it may be time to check on the forum and parkinsan (sp?) may chime in. Hope its nothing serious!
