My Ghost Echo won't self-oscillate!

[colossus]

As the title says...

I just got one of these from a member here and I absolutely love it, but I was def excited for oscillation possibilities that I've read about/seen clips of on youtube. Even with my dwell and decay cranked, still no oscillation

Anyone else have this issue? Dwell also seems REALLY subtle. Is this par for the course with this pedal? I totally love it but it's def not as "soupy" as I was kinda hoping for.

I've heard of any self-oscillating Ghost Echoes? Mine never got too crazy.


edit: I've never heard of...

I didn't think these oscillated...I was pumped to think that they could, though. Will be watching this thread with interest.

There might be a trimpot inside that controls the feedback range you could tamper with.

[colossus]

No trimpot, already checked. I don't know...a few reviews mentioned oscillation and I saw a demo here and there that got a bit more wild than mine with decay/dwell cranked. Manual also mentions oscillation.

Yeah my mates one self oscillates dramatically. Pretty insane.

[UglyCasanova]

Maybe try changing the PT2399?

[colossus]

Yeah, that's worth a shot. I have a bunch. Can't hurt at least!

Had a big box Ghost Echo that definitely oscillated before I got anywhere close to the full turn of the knobs. Chip? Tweaks to the corcuit for the smaller version? Larger box mojo oscillation toan?

[bob the r0bot]

It's totally possible that they tamed it back in a later board revision. It might be worth asking mr earthquaker if that's the case and busting out the soldering iron.

[Ev_O)))]

Yeah big box or small? My mates is a big box

[colossus]

Small box. I'll try a new chip and if no dice, I'll email EQD. I found a thread about DIY ghost echos and they mention swapping a certain resistor for more feedback.
