whammy xp100 question

Post by hbombgraphics »

just got a whammy xp100 WHAMMY WAH !!!!! YEAH

works and sounds great
when you put in bypass no sound comes through (when you hold for tuner you get sound again) I think this is the opposite of how it should work


Can't find anything online


is this a settings thing????

Switches can be finicky on those, but there is also a button on the back I have accidentally pressed that seemed to mess something up, try pressing that. If not, switches are cheap on eBay.
Plenty of noise, little discernible skill or talent

That's very weird. Mine never did that. Probably a dodgy switch.

yeah I figured, since the switch will put it into tuner mode if you hold it not sure who or how to fix.
may just get a single tb loop for it

I always did that anyways because I didn't trust the switch.

As a precaution, I would recommend a factory reset.

Factory Reset/Pedal Calibrate - To reset the User programs to their factory settings and calibrate the
expression pedal, press and hold the <BYPASS/(Hold)TUNER> foot switch and apply power to the unit.
Wait until the letters rS appear in the display and release the foot switch. The display will now show: Pd
and CA , indicating that you are in pedal calibrate mode Once Pb appears, rock the pedal back and
press the <BYPASS> foot switch. When PF appears, rock the pedal forward and press the <BYPASS> foot
switch. SA will next appear in the display to confirm the pedal is now calibrated.

If the switch is indeed flaking out, you can get a complete rebuild kit here;

I will try a reset, and I ordered a TB Loop kit to slam together
My 10yo wants to learn to solder so I think this is a good starter project


thanks for all the input
