i just got a malleko sprink chicken le and i fucking love it. in front of my amps it is glorious (tried in front of my fender bassman and drri, also my vox ac30tb). today i put it into my marshall dsl fx loop and noticed a significant volume drop when engaged. im running pedal power 2 into a furman so its not power issuses, and all my mid-fi pedals, loop pedals, modulation pedals arnt affected in the loop. any one else notice this with the spring chicken in a loop?

pretty sure the one I've had for like 2/3 weeks has some sort of drop or change. Tone? volume? I don't know. I only notice it when its the only pedal on and the knob is at 0 and I have to be listening very closely. I dont really care though :/ all my other pedals change the sound a whole lot more hehehe

Try it 100% wet in the loop, that might fix things

I have one of the originals, and to my ears there's a slight perception of volume drop as the signal gets softer from the effect. Sorry, I don't run mine through an effects loop - but in my situation, the chicken definitely benefits from having a pedal with a buffer in front.
