Members Nillerbabs Posted September 12, 2011 Members Share Posted September 12, 2011 Yo folks, ... Well, actually my Carbon Copy is fine - thank God. But I played a gig last night, and something caused it to behave oddly; I suspect power is to blame, but I really don't have a clue, as everything seemed fine to me. Switching the pedal on or off generated a massive 'click' that was very apparent in monitors as well as FOH. Furthermore, when the pedal was on, the keyboard volume dropped by 50%. I accommodated the problem by leaving the pedal on, and just turning the effect up and down; this will however not be possible in all situations, and thus I'm eager to know the cause of the problem, as to be able to solve it, should the situation reappear. So to all of you clever guys - what could the problem possibly be? BTW - cables works fine and dandy, and the power supply was sparkling new.

Members AluminumFalcon Posted September 12, 2011 Members Share Posted September 12, 2011 Heyhey. I'm having the same loud click problem with mine as well. It comes and goes from time to time and unfortunately I don't know the cause of it. Static buildup perhaps? BTW This is my second Carbon Copy, the first one completely died on me, which Dunlop replaced no problem. However if this one goes I think I'm going to have to choose a different delay pedal. Maybe contact Dunlop and see what they say? I'm curious to know as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RoboPimp Posted September 12, 2011 Members Share Posted September 12, 2011 using it with keyboard? What were you plugging into? An amp, DI box or? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members orourke Posted September 12, 2011 Members Share Posted September 12, 2011 That's why I don't buy Dunlop anymore. My experience is that their reliability stinks. I really like the sound of the Dunlop boxes, but my EVH Phaser has power problems, my Stereo Tremelo has power problems and Dunlop's wah's have a short life span. I can't put any of those box's on my pedalboard and expect them to work at a gig. They ought to fix the problem so that people could buy from them with some confidence that the stuff will work longer than a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members macadood Posted September 12, 2011 Members Share Posted September 12, 2011 i've had no problems with reliability from mxr's stuff and i've owned probably about 10 of their effects, no problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
