So after dialing up an awesome bunch of presets on the Boss ME 50 multi effects, I noticed a significant amount of electrical buzz/hiss. Other guitarist uses same set up and has almost zero noise. The buzz is really pronounced. Need to get rid of it.
*amp does NOT buzz when I run directly into it and use amp's gain.
* Buzzes with all of my guitars, not specific to one guitar.
* ME 50 is used in-line from guitar to amp into clean channel. 10 band eq in effects loop- turning off eq does not minimize buzz.
* Dialing down the gain on the eq, amp and ME 50 only effected the buzz marginally.
* ME 50 does not have a grounded plug and amp does not have any discernible grounding controls on head.
* some distortion fx were more noisy than others-
* Volume pedal set at zero does kill the buzz. Seems to suggest that buzz is originating from the ME 50.
I'd love to get this ironed out before a big gig this Saturday. Any and all suggestions are welcome.
