terrywood 0 Posted June 20, 2017 System: Pod X3 Live Amp used: Vox AC-16 connected using a cable that's XLR female/TRS 1/4" Has anyone had this issue: 1. An annoying buzz which seems to come and go when I touch the volume/wah pedal? 2. A squeaking sound when you move the volume/wah pedal? I bought this unit in 2009 and this has happened increasingly over the past few months. I cleaned the outside of the unit and sprayed all the connections with contact cleaner.

patdixon 13 Posted June 20, 2017 Sounds like 2 different things. For the 1st part, what happens if you use one TS cable from a live output to the input jack on the amp? #2 sounds like mechanical noise; contact cleaner will only make that worse. Try some graphite (pencil lead works) at the pivot nut if you can get it in there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
