Jamiefbolton123 Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Can’t really figure this out folks. I want to put a Box of Rock in the effects loop but there’s a nasty noise when the pedal is engaged. Other overdrive pedals are quiet. Same gain amount too. So it seems specific to the BoR. Not using a power supply either; using a battery doesn’t help. So I’ve eliminated the Ojai power supply as the problem. I am using the official L6 power supply too. Now heres res where it gets funnier. If I run the BoR before the HX then all is well. No nasty noise. So it seems isolated to the effects loop. Either loop is noisy too. I’ve used different cables. No difference. And it seems like some sort of inherent noise floor issue because even with the gain of the BoR down there’s still way too much noise and hiss. What do you think?

rd2rk Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Maybe the BOR doesn't like being in the loop. If it sounds better before the HX, use it that way. Some ODs are just like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamiefbolton123 Posted August 4, 2018 Author Share Posted August 4, 2018 I guess maybe so. It’s just really irritating. Messes with my setup that I wanted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
