Metasonix

Post by mecanikill »

I plugged up some Metasonix stuff to the Defiance got the power light to come on and that was it. If I turned the dial just a tiny bit the pedal would power off. Is it just not pushing enough juice to run the Metasonix stuff? I know they need lots of power, any suggestions? Has anyone else tried this and got a power starve to work with any Metasonix stuff?

I going to guess that Metasonix products take more than 9 volts. As far as I know the Defiance only outputs 9 volts and lower so it will must likely do nothing to the Metasonix.

Possible upgrade for Defiance II...variable voltage switch?
The fuzz is where the flavor is.

Defiance doesn't put out nothing. Electricity passes through it, it's a passive device, excepting the LED. BUT lets hold off on the Metasonix, until I crack open this defiance that stopped working after a metasonix experiment.
