Hi all,



my boss dc-2 has started making some weird noise when turned on.

the noise it does, Its like having some parasite (scratchy) in my amp.

I also notice a little signal loss. Im powering it whit a boss psa adapter.


the pedal works fine for a couple of minutes, then goes bad, goes fine again...

Ahhh... I'm in Calgary. I was going to offer to have a look at it for you if you were local

Check that the regulator has 7V coming out of it - put your meter across C40.

I think the actual fix will be minor. But finding the problem may take a lot of work...
