Hi All!

Need some advice! Heres the current state of my board. I've numbered the pedals in order of signal path with the Organizer getting 8A because it's in the effects loop of the superego.

when I run the superego, memory man, echo shifter, and verbzilla at the same time the signal gets hot and starts to distort. individually they are fine. is there something I can put in between them to buffer the signal? Not sure if that's the right term. Would a compressor work? I like the sounds I'm getting with all engaged until it starts distorting.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Also the PN-2 is a placeholder while my hummingbird gets repaired by the great folks at EQD!

An effects loop going into two delays with reverb is going to inherently get noisier and start to distort as the repeats build up...

What kind of amp are you running? Does it seem like the distortion is from your amp or something else.


I seem to remember the verbzilla clipping fairly easily from a hot signal, so that might be the culprit.

Sonidero - Never thought of it but it makes sense. Going to try putting the organizer after the superego and see how that goes.

The Echo Shifter is BBD right??? Try playing both delays and reverb and see if it does the same thing... Reverse the delay order or try one further back in the chain... You have the delay and reverb last and they are just going to keep building and repeating what's in front of them... Maybe try less fdbk/mix on one or all three???
