Providence Anadime Bass Chorus.

[Blaze77]

Hi everyone. This is my first post here. I'm so glad I found this place.

I have a small problem. I bought the Providence Bass Chorus and there seems to be something wrong with it, but I'd like to discuss this with someone who uses the same chorus.

The problem is that the effect has too much background noise, for my taste. When the switch is in the second position, the Providence has more noise than the EXC bass Clone. In the third position, the noise becomes really loud with a pronounced LFO modulation.
It's worse when I set the depth knob to zero.
In these positions, the effect is useless because the noise is audible on recordings.

In the first position (from the bottom), the effect is quiet and I don't have any problems.

The noise is there regardless of whether I use the effect on batteries or with a power supply.

I really like the sound, but these two settings are driving me crazy.

Can someone help?

Hi Guys. Anyone who has this chorus can help?

I just added the sound somple with the issue - first fraze is with switch position 1 and then I change the position of the switch to no 2 and 3 at the end where is very loud LFO leaking to the sound path

(I don't have nor have ever tried that type of Bass Pedal )

 

yes I agree that switch 2 and 3 are adding unwanted noise 

 

a few years back I had a chorus pedal doing a similar thing (Tech 21) and I "solved" that by how it was powered , IIRC it exclusively used it's own output from the power brick 

 

good luck
