I've tried buffered and unbuffered pedals. I also initially thought the problem was only with pedals that had a hard switch instead of a soft switch but now all my pedals are doing it. Buffered, true-bypass, hard switch, soft switch, no difference. All pop. As a matter of fact, some of the...
Cool. Good to know Dave will take care of this. I think your issue might have been a little different though. The hum that's happening on some of the Runts seems to be coming only through the XLR DI output which is something the BE100 doesn't have. As far as I've been able to tell, it...
Seems like we're kind of mirroring this particular topic from TGP so I'll paste what I posted there.
Sucks to hear but I'm glad it's not just my imagination and my amp isn't an isolated thing. I emailed the dealer I bought it from but haven't heard back from them yet. The backward footswitch...
One more update - spent some time at home today doing a lot of troubleshooting. I hooked up several different amps to check the FX loops and XLR hum. Here's what I found.
The amps I used to test for pedals popping in the FX loop were quiet. The Runt was not. Pedals still popping in the...
Just wanted to update on the issues -- below is a post I made on TGP. Someone mentioned it could be a grounding problem and here was my reply:
"Yep, could very well be a grounding thing.
That said, I'm happy to report that at yesterday's gig, the hum through the XLR was barely noticeable, if...
Thanks. There are also a couple of people on the long Runt thread on TGP who mentioned having the same issue with theirs. It seems like the problem is worse with pedals that have hard switches instead of soft switches. The TC HOF Mini has a soft switch and doesn't make the popping noises...
I just picked up a Runt 20 and couldn't be happier with how it sounds. Fantastic sounding amp. I'm having a bit of a problem with the FX loop though. Whenever I turn on or off a pedal that's in the loop, I get a loud popping noise.
What's strange is that I have one pedal that doesn't pop...
