Walrus Audio Voyager Problem
Hello. I recently acquired a Voyager and when the pedal is engaged, a choppy, tremolo effect turns on, the volume of which increases when the volume is turned up. All other knobs do nothing. Any clue as to what may be causing this? Thanks in advance.

Sounds like a power and/or grounding issue. I don't see any schematics available online and the only pictures of the PCB show the ICs being gooped to hide their part numbers. It looks like it has a charge pump and that would be my first guess as to what's gone wrong.

Thanks for the reply, Dr. Satan. I got in touch with Walrus and they're guess was either a bad IC or cap/ I've sent it to them to fix so I suppose I'll wait and see what in fact is wrong with it.

Weird! My friend has a Mayflower with the same issue. Apparently the email that was sent back to him was "did you try a different cable?"
