I've got half a day off tomoz (birthday ) so before celebrate I'll be pulling apart the board. I have a suspicion that the problem may lie within the patch cables or power supply... If I find the problem, I'll post the solution! Russ.

Hey, thanks for your responses! Yes the cab has a tweeter, could that be effected by some issue on the board? OBBM: cheers, I'll try and see if I can single out the problem by running the chain one by one until the issue occurs, if that fails, I'll message back in here!

Hey guys, I've just recently aquired a mighty Orange AD200 MK3 rig with matching Orange 4x10 and 1x15 from one of our brothers here on BC The rig works 100% fine, its a real beaut, but when I hook up my pedal board I get a slight High pitched hum, the more I increase the gain or volume, the louder it gets, and as soon as I switch on the limiter pedal, or the distortion pedal, the hum is amplified 10 fold, making it impossible to play at any volume. I would REALLY appreciate some advise on how to get rid of this noise, so I'm just left with a noiseless signal flow. Here's how its set up, just incase I've done something stupid... (possible!) The head has 2 4ohm outs which are running to each of the cabs, the power cable is plugged into a 4 point extension lead. The "active" input on the amp goes to a limiter pedal, then a DD-20, then a power brick (quite a chepa one) then a polytune, then an Ibanez Phat head, then a SouceAudio flanger, then a cyborg reverb, then a Boss SYB-5, then a roland expression pedal, then an Ernie Ball jr volume pedal and finally a Morley Bass Wah II (the morley is the only thing powered by a seperate powerbrick) Both power bricks plug into a 2 point extention cable, attached to the board, so that I can the power EVERYTHING with just one plug. That plug is then plugged into the same 4 point extension as the amp itself. The board does have a solid a good signal flow with reasonable patch cables that I've used before with no hum. I have coiled up both the power brick leads and the expression pedal lead to save space and prevent tangles, which I've heard... MAY produce feedback? If anyone knows there stuff and is local (Wickford, Essex) then they would be very welcome to help me out with this issue, I can provide all the tea you want complete with bourbons and you'd be very welcome to try you hand at any of my basses. (see signature!) I'm hoping one of you tech geniuses can help me deal with this as all the gear is amazing to play with but this hum just spoils it! Thanks, Russ.

Bought a 'Fibson' from Moos3h today, it's exactly as described, and it was a smooth and easy deal cheers buddy, deal with this man and you shall not be dissapointed! Russ.
