Title: Midboost wich doesnt work with the switcher
Post by: ciaophe on January 24, 2011, 05:08:45 PM
Hello everybody.

I'm the happy owner of a 50W Overtone since 2008.

Everything was running well until last concert: the mid boost of this wonderful amp did not work anymore.

More precisely: when I'm switching on the pedal switch (the green one), the mid boost don't goes on.
But when I'm switching it on the rear switch (manual vs pedal) it works.

In another way, I can't switch it on or off anymore with my pedal controller

Does anybody have an explanation?

Thanks a lot
Cisco

Firstly I dont think thats the midboost. Rather the preamp boost (PAB) which bypasses the tone controls. Unless you got a custom switch with the actual mid boost (deep) on it.

Anyway make sure the switches on the back are in the correct position. IIRC some of them were wired backwards, more notably the earlier amps, wich may pertain to yours. Not a big deal the switches just work opposite as they are labeled. If thats not it, your problem points to something in the pedal not working.
