You would also need an amplifier to drive the speakers.
Any poweramp or active monitor/PA speaker should work. |

Hi Feras
Welcome to the forum from Australia.
As Dirk just mentioned in the previous post.
The outputs have to be connected to an amplifier / PA / MIXER. It does not contain an internal power amp. The outputs are line level out.
This topic has be brought up once before many years ago.
I hope this helps you out.
Regards Dr. Bob  |

I think he did that.
Does the SE-50 power up at all? And if yes, do you have sound when the SE-50 is bypassed (effect off). |

Hi Feras
What are you using for an input signal? And do you have the input - output levels set high enough - or correctly?
In case you don't have one. Here is a (verified) link to the official SE-50 user manual.

Hi Feras
Please download the User manual, on the link I h=just posted. Go to page 108 And perform the procedure (steps) for the Factory RESET.
After Factory resetting your SE-50 Re-test your unit.
It may have had a lot of bad patches programmed in to it. Or perhaps the output level setting was set to zero level or a very low.
If you have some test geat like a Multimeter, measure the internal Memory backup battery.
Good luck Regards Dr. Bob  |

Hi Feras Did you download the manual? Or did you have one already.
Do you have access to some test gear? Multimeter - SigGen - Scope?
I once did a few repairs to an SE-30 (nothing too extensive), but I'm not fully familiar with the SE-50

I'm afraid you'll have to take it to a guitar store or qualified electronics expert to check it out.
Good luck with it anyway. |

Hi Feras
Check you put everything back together properly, including the polarity of the battery. recheck the battery. Looks for connectors that may not be inserted or aligned correctly
And unfortunately, becasue of your remoteness, & complexity of units like the SE-50.
As Dirk has already suggested below. You may have to take it to someone with the schematics & service parts. Do you have a Roland Boss importer-distributor in your country.
