Fejlfinding
| Problem | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|
| Ingen lyd når pedalen er trådt i. | Incorrect power supply, faulty cables, incorrect input/output connections. | Verify power supply is 9V DC center-negative. Check all instrument cables. Ensure input is connected to IN and output to OUT. |
| Effect is too subtle or too extreme. | Knobs are set incorrectly, or in ALT mode unintentionally. | Adjust the relevant control knobs (Time, Feedback, Tone). Check if the pedal is in ALT mode and adjust accordingly. |
| Cannot save or recall presets. | Forkert betjening af fodpedalen. | Sørg for at du holder Preset/Save footswitch long enough to save. For recalling, use short presses. |
| Noise or hum. | Jordsløjfe, defekt strømforsyning, interferens. | Use an isolated power supply. Try different cables. Ensure proper grounding of all equipment. |
