MOD Dwarf background noise by power supply

@Lukasz Can you provide a photo of your pedalboard? I am curious…

I can second that. I have switched to TrueTone 1spotPro CS7 and since than not a peep. It’s powering the pedals on my desk. I have also acquired a power supply “for the road” which is a Harely Benton PowerPlant adapter, capable of 12V 3A, which is also groundless and quiet when plugged in.

The black one is SS3 clone - really nice one. Kernom can make any garbage guitar sound pristine.

Hi @Lukasz Cool board! I really like and appreciate it. It is minimalistic and I love this. Thanks for the shot!

I have the Kernom as well but I will sell it, because I can cover it within the Dwarf. I meanwhile have two Dwarfs on my board because I am playing 3 instruments and singing, all through the two Dwarfs. I am a bit jalous about your Mod DuoX, to be honest. :stuck_out_tongue: I also had the idea to buy a used one and to replace the Dwarf with it. But at the end I decided to go for a second Dwarf.

I get background noise if my computer is connected to the USB port.
As far as Germans go, they are about as annoying as us Americans. Some are nice and some, not so much.

“I get background noise if my computer is connected to the USB port.” - this is a normal thing, it is this same here.

“I have the Kernom as well but I will sell it, because I can cover it within the Dwarf.” - I love Kernom for easyness with tweaking good sounds.

“I also had the idea to buy a used one and to replace the Dwarf with it. But at the end I decided to go for a second Dwarf.” - I love the idea of having both - DuoX and Dwarf. At this point DUoX is my NAM loader - I can spend money on amalgam profiles :))). On the other hand Dwarf is small, has footswitches, navigation using 3 knobs and 3 switches is perfectly designed, works just great. Also the way the parameters are displayed is much better than in duo X, but it does not work with heavy stuff, like NAM… so it is good to have them both :wink:

It doesn’t happen on any other device I own. Normal on the MOD device. Not on anything else. So not normal, IMHO.

the question is - do you use a laptop and if it is connected with wall socket? In my case I experience noise only if my laptop is connected with wall socket by charger.

Yes, it is connected to power. However, this is not normal behavior. I use two Line 6 devices and a USB sound interface. No issues. Normal for a MOD, not normal for anything else. That’s my point.
