Hey guys,

Somethings up with my Boss BCB-60 board.

I went to play earlier, fired up the Champ and got the Tele out and needed a quick tune so I plugged my board in - absolutely nothing comin out! The adaptor for the board is fine as it powers each pedal individually and I have tested all leads. I've been fiddling round for the last 2 hours!

Help me!

CC

Take each pedal out of the board, and try plugging into each one individually, and see if they work by themselves....If they work individually, then you probably have a bad patch cable somewhere.

Oh yeah, sounds kind of crazy, but make sure all cables are plugged in, and plugged in the right way.

If you are not using the AC adapter that came with the board to power the board, make sure is has enough output to actually power the board. I just bring this up if you got it used. Not all AC adapters are the same...Yes, they step down all step down the voltage out of your wall sockets to 9-12 volts or so, but the mA output, or milliamps output, sometimes has to be at a certain range to power multiple pedals...

Plug straight into the amp to make sure its not the amp or guitar either...

Sorry I don't have an instant answer, but if you look into all these things, you'll either find the problem, or at least be able to eliminate the guitar, amp, and individual pedals as being the issue...

It seems to be the power point on the BCB-60, all cables are fine cos I'm daisy chaining from the TU-2 now using all the same stuff.

Annoyance!!
