5. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity of your STRICH pedalboard:
- Regularly clean the pedalboard surface with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and debris.
- Inspect Velcro strips periodically and replace if adhesion weakens.
- Check all connections and cables for wear and tear before each use.
- Store the pedalboard in its carrying case when not in use to protect it from dust and physical damage.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your pedalboard setup:
- No Power to Pedals: Ensure your power supply is correctly connected to a power source and that all pedal power cables are securely plugged into both the power supply and the pedals. Verify power supply output specifications match pedal requirements.
- Unwanted Noise: Check all patch cables for proper connection and integrity. Ensure your power supply is isolated if using multiple high-current pedals. Proper cable management can also reduce interference.
- Pedals Not Sticking: Clean the bottom of your pedals and the pedalboard's Velcro surface. Replace worn Velcro strips if necessary.
