"hiss" sound on boston DD-200

[fredpogi]

can someone please help me with this problem?...the hissing sound is really audible and annoying.i dont know what's wrong...if there is, can it be fixed? sa pagtitipid ko bumili ako ng murang delay, lalo pa tuloy napagastos! dapat nag boss DD-6/7 na lang ako.hehehe please help me with this.thanks alot

hiss = feedback?? 

i don't encounter this problem with my DD-200 though.

[fredpogi]

nope.not feed back. as in parang ahas ang tunog. "ssssssssss" bad trip nga e. kahit ung delay lang mismo ang nakakabit ganun pa din. (guitar>>DD-200>>amp)

[ghostalker]

kung guitar -> amp  only may hiss pa ba?
na try mo ba ibang patch cables mo?
ano power source ng DD200 mo? PSU or Battery?

check cables and yung grounding the guitar mo.

maraming factors, update us with details po

I have Boston DD-100 wala naman hiss or any noise

[hardcore misery]

hindi talaga consistent ang gawa ng boston, yung dd100 ko dati, meron yun eh, pero nareduced ko siya, yang hiss na yan, lalakas pag may halong OD or distortion...

ganun pla, thanks sa info, hehe siguro swerte ako dun sa nabili ko sa JB music.

guitar>>>amp...walang hiss...i use gator g-bus psu...i also have a psu from UNOH...i tried all my psu's pero maingay pa din...cables are fine kase i tried all the other stomps and ung delay lang talaga maingay... BAD TRIP...thanks sa mga tulong nyo guys.

Better bring it back nalang to JB para ma-check nila. Baka ma-repair or palitan pa ng bagong unit yan.

[hardcore misery]

palit ng unit yan for sure...

[DiMarzSiao™]

saan mo nabili???


if possible sa'yo... bring your guitar and amp, tapos, mag test ka ng ibang unit.

pwede mo papalitan yan...

just bring your proof of purchase (receipt)
at kung pasok pa sa warranty... papalitan nila yan...

yun ang malaking problema!hindi ko mahanap ang resibo!  kaya i was thinking if it can be "fixed" na lang.hehehe anyway...salamat ng marami sa inyong lahat mga kapatid! just incase, what delay pedal would you guys recomend? yung may tap tempo ah. and by the way, pede bang gumamit ng patch cable na pa-"Y" ang itsura? ang dating nya e 2 diffrent tomps merging to 1 signal path, going to one stomp??? makaka sira ba ng stomp yun?

thanks!

Digital Signal Processor na ata problema niyan eh, pwedeng mareduce yung noise pero hindi totally eliminated..

[fredpogi]

hindi na ba marerepare un?

[hardcore misery]

hindi na ba marerepare un?

san ba location mo? pwede kong mareduce ang noise nun, eto number ko at YM: 09225277521 / wwindshieldd@yahoo.com

test using a battery. the best and fastest way to remove any noise is :

guitar -> noise gate -> dd-200. that way, the noise gate will mute the guitar and other inherent noises, specially hiss that the dd-200 can pick up and repeat.

I used the behringher d-100 and it has no hiss, has tap tempo and IMO performed better than my boston dd-100. but i disposed it since it's very choosy in PSUs and is plastic. Now i'm planning to get the premier analog delay for only P1,200. I don't need the repeated delays anyway, I only use it for ambiance.

anong nagiging problema nung dd100 ng behringer sa iba pang PSU? pa elaborate bro, thanks!

if you use an ordinary adapter at 9vdc, the led blinks continuously even in bypass mode. in that case, reduce the dc voltage to 7.5. the ac input is also on the side, an inconvenience to those with boss configurated pedal boards. but the performance surpasses the boston delay, I've already tested this head on with my buddies with boston delay.

hmmm... yun pala yun, safe kaya sa behringer pedals yung medyo mataas pa sa 9v ang supply, sa boss pedals kasi, safe naman eh...

[lord4dark]

i'm not risking that. resistors, capacitors can handle over voltages, but diodes , ics and transistors will be affected. I don't see any reason why go over 9v.

[hardcore misery]

most opamps used on boss pedals can operate at a max. limit of 18V, kaya safe naman yung mga opamps kung medyo lalagpas ka ng konti sa 9V (halos 12V na nga supply ng psu ko eh.hehe) sa mga transistors, ganun din siguro(di na ako nakapagcheck ng datasheets nito) all analog pedals, pwedeng magoperate sa voltage greater than 9V, diba usually naman, may mga zener diodes naman ang mga pedals? which regulates voltages, na kahit greater than 9V ang supply mo, magbibigay pa rin ng fixed voltage yung zener diodes..

ang risky nga yung mga digital effects, since SMD ang gamit sa loob(wala pa akong idea sa mga voltage ratings nito nor power ratings) pero may dd100 ako ng boston dati, wala namang ngyaring masama kahit ganun yung supply voltage ng PSU ko

nabasa ko lang sa ibang forums at dito din, na medyo iba rin daw ang performance ng pedals pag over 9V ang supply voltage na ginamit mo...

[lord4dark]

maybe it would be better if they provide any specific changes in tone is you do an overvoltage. I know there is a technique that simulates a dying battery to give your distortion pedals that distinct buzz.

meanwhile, you can get smd parts from dead cellphones.

for hissing problems, try adding a capacitor+resistor  on the output path of the dd-200, but it will affect the tone of course.

parang lowpass filter? nasubukan ko na dati, nagparallel lang ako ng capacitor sa output ng dd100, nawala ang hiss, naging warm naman yung clean tone..hehehe

[lord4dark]

he he, kaya nga add ka ng resistor, try mo muna pot, ha ha delay pedal na may tone control!

ito ba yung reply mo sir sa PM ko regarding possible mods sa Boston d.Delay

ngayon ko lang narinig yan hehe

[melody_guitar]

hiss is mostly a result of hi gain.. delay pedals are typically maaarte talaga sa power supply..grabe..kung gagamit ka ng mumurahing raon adaptors eh masasayang lang pera mo at possible na nasira pa ang unit..kaya go for regulated adaptors or psu's.. madami niyan sa classified ads.. then another thing is yung cables.. malaking factor din yan sa noise eh..or baka naman sa amp mo bro.. try mo sa ibang amps kung ganun pa din.. or just use a Boss NS-2.. i've been using it for a long time.. nice talaga sa noise elimination...
