Brach, I’m sorry I went silent there for a while. Thank you for your response. I’ve been tinkering with it, but I haven’t made any progress yet. I need to remove the pots in order to check the solder joints underneath, but I think I need to get a solder sucker first to make that job successful. I’ll repost when I’ve made some more progress.

Thanks again Brach

Hi Brach, thanks for the reply. I bought this pedal used and advertised as “not working properly”. I figured it would be a cool project to help me learn to be a better problem solver as I have successfully repaired several pieces of gear (it’s so much fun 🙂 )! Anyways, below are links to two videos that show the unit in 2 modes and demonstrates the issue with the volume knob. If soldering is needed then I can do that! Some of the knobs turn kind of funny. They get harder to turn at certain points (not all of them). The second video points out an example of this. Could you give me some advice based on these video samples?

Hi Pat, I’m wondering if adjusting the pots actually worked for you. I believe that I have the same problem that you described in your original post. The depth isn’t very dramatic at all, but the reason for I believe is that the pedal is still letting signal through when the effect is turned on. On my unit if I turn the wave shape to “square” it should alternate between no sound and full sound, but it doesn’t. There is always some level of dry signal coming through. Also, on perhaps an unrelated note (maybe not) the volume knob on my quaverato has almost no effect on the actual volume level. Only when I turn it fully clockwise does the volume level jump up suddenly.
There was another thread with someone else having similar issues recently (Nov 2023) and he said he got his pedal to work normally by reflashing the pedal. I just performed a successful flash with the latest driver, but nothing changed. Help!
