So I'm in the midsts of sorting my pedal board out (finally, famous last words!)
Anyway I tested it out today through the Blues deluxe. And the T'Wah seems to be generating some extra hum and noise. It's being powered by a PP2. I've tested the connecting cables and they seem to be fine. I've also ran the pedal from a battery. I've never noticed the hum before, I've only really ran the pedal on its own into my vox lil nightrain practice amp.
The only thing I can think of, could the position of the Vox wah be the root of the problem? I remember reading about some problems with wah's and fuzz boxes?
I'm going to test the pedal away from the board to see if that cures it, if not I think I'll have to look for a replacement auto wah.
I would love to change my username, but I fully understand the T&C's (it was an old band nickname). So please feel free to call me Dave.

Sadly the hum only reduces when its off the board, literally below the one control bypass looper I want to keep everything on the board ideally. I can tolerate having the volume pedal off of the board. But I want to keep the effects pedals on.
