G7,1ut. I cannot get a good clean sound the same as plugging straight into my amp. ?

It sounds like you have accidentally set your Zoom 606 pedal to the "AL" patch. The "AL" patch is a special patch that allows you to access the pedal's internal settings and make adjustments.
To turn patches on, you will need to exit the "AL" patch and select a regular patch. Here's how to do it:

1. Press and hold the "Program" button until the display shows "AL."
2. Use the "Value" knob to select "P0."
3. Press and hold the "Program" button again until the display shows "P0."
4. Use the "Value" knob to select the desired patch.
5. Press the "Program" button to exit the patch selection screen.

Your pedal should now be in the patch you selected. You can use the "Value" knob to adjust the settings for the patch as desired.
If you are unable to access the patch selection screen, or if the pedal is not functioning properly, you may need to reset the pedal to its factory default settings. To do this, press and hold the "Program" and "Value" knobs simultaneously for about three seconds until the display shows "F0." This will reset the pedal to its default settings. You can then follow the steps above to select a patch and make any necessary adjustments.

Download n install 2 softwares for G2 from ZOOM website.
1. USB subsystem. Driver to connect zoom fx to PC/Notebook.
2. EDIT & SHARE. Software to create/copy sound patch.

Connect USB cable from G2 to PC/notebook.
No need adapter power supply, because the power is supply via
USB cable from PC/notebook.
Open EDIT & SHARE. It's easy,like copy,paste,rename,delete etc.
Just open the menu that you want to do and follow the
instructions. Sound patch can be load from files that you
download, or create it in EDIT & SHARE.
Patch can be load one files or group. Right Click the sound that you want to change,copy-paste it from new file/sound.
You can import/export files/patches from/to PC library (downloaded files).
It is recomended that you save/backup your original files,before load new sound.

I hope this helps.
Regards.

I have one, and IT WORKS for me!

As the manual suggests, the 1st step is to RESET your pedal board. I know, you 'll have to erase 20 custom presets of yours but hey, they're already lost anyway!... So just reset the on board chip by pressing the TAP and STORE buttons together for 5 seconds while you power ON the X V-amp. That's it! Now the board sounds good as new!

I will answer this assuming you have connected the inputs and outputs of both the pedals AND the amplifier/guitar properly. Double-check your connections! ;)

Otherwise...Have you checked all the patch cables to make sure they're ALL working properly? That's usually the culprit in a situation like this, all other things being equal. Cables take the majority of abuse in your signal chain and also happen to be the weak link in the signal chain as well. It only takes one bad patch cable in a series to interrupt the signal.

I would take a pedal with perfectly functioning inputs and outputs and use it to test each cable yer using. If you verify all the cables are in fact working properly (and you are 100% certain everything is connected correctly), that indicates there might be an issue with the pedalboard's onboard electronics. At the most simple, the "From Guitar" or the "To Pedal" or the "To Amplifier Input" jack might be bad. One or more them, in fact, but it only takes one to entirely interrupt that signal chain. The loop section is less straight-forward in that if one of the loops has a bad input or output jack, that shouldn't affect the overall signal chain, nor the inclusion of the other pedals in said signal chain.

So, I think it's one of three things:

1. The pedals, guitar, or amplifier are not properly connected;
2. You have a bad patch cable;
3. Something has gone wrong with the electronics onboard the pedalboard, and this will probably require service.

Hope that helps.

your parallel loop only has input, a series has out and in, you need to patch the out of amp to the in of the pedal, and out of the pedal to the in of the amp fx loop. then you need to make sure your loop is turned on, via switch or footpedal.

I have the Boss ME 50. Here's things to try. Use wall outlet to power the 25 instead of batteries. Have volume on amp up, volume on pedal all the way up, volume pedal all the way up(depressed), no gain on amp(use clean channel or clean setting if only 1 channel)effects on amp off(reverb, chorus, delay, boost, etc.) mid range knob below 5. only 1 pickup on, guitar tone knob all the way towards treble. If this puts you in the ballpark you can then make slight tweaks to any of these settings. What we're trying to do is not run a dirty sound from the pedal board into an amp with dirty settings. That double dirt often causes a muddy sound. Aside from that you can back off on various effects in the patches. My 50 has a list of the patches and factory settings, so if the drive, for example is set on 8, I might back it off to 4, or the compressor, or the delay, etc. If you like the sound save it. If not continue on. Start with the amp 1st. Higher output tubes(such as JJ's produce a cleaner sound. Also the demo you heard was not coming from your guitar speaker which may not be on the clean side.

Hello. I am assuming that you are using the manufacturer supplied mains power supply and not running it from battery (otherwise replace the battery before doing anything else). I have noticed a similar problem occasionally with my Zoom G1XN too - mostly when I have been using it with headphones plugged directly into the pedal. Sometimes gently wiggling the output jack plug seems to have solved the problem - however I have had it occur when using the pedal with an amp too. Next step would be to try using different jack leads (or swapping the ends round) to make sure it is not a problem with poor contacts in the sockets. If this seems to solve the problem a little squirt of switch cleaner in the sockets wouldn't go amiss - but leave it 24 hours to dry out before using again. Do you find it only happens on some patches or on all of them? I have one patch that is absolutely clean (straight through with every effect set at flat/zero). Try that with one patch and see if it still does it and to give you a quick comparison. However, I think there may also be a bit of a problem with the effects processor itself (either in the design or the circuitry) - let's face it the GX1 is a modestly priced unit and they probably keep the price down by using cheap components. My usual solution has been to switch it off and remove all the plugs and start again. This has worked but is kind of annoying if it happens in the middle of a gig or half way through recording a song. Lastly I would try re-calibrating the expression pedal. as follows

1. Turn the unit off
2. Hold down the PEDAL ASSIGN button whilst turning on the power/ inserting input jack-plug.
3. Raise the expression fully and press the STORE key (display should read "UP")
4. Push the pedal down as far as it will go, until it hits the stop, and then release it (it will return slightly at this point)
5. Press the STORE button again.
6. If the display reads "Er" repeat the process from step 3 above.

Hello I have this pedal too and have experienced similar problems..
If you are using battery power only use Duracell Ultra (or equivalent) never re-chargeable batteries. However I am assuming you are using the mains power adapter rather than batteries.
Start by eliminating external issues. Change your guitar lead and output lead - if you don't have spares swap them over or swap the ends round to make sure it is not a contact issue in the jack sockets.
I found this problem occurred most often when I was using headphones plugged directly into the pedal rather than an amp. I was usually able to solve it by wiggling the output jack plug slightly so came to the conclusion that it was just a poor quality plug or socket.
Having said that I think that there might be a bug in the processor unit itself because I have occasionally experienced the problem when playing through an amp. I resolved it by unplugging everything and starting again but this is a bit annoying either during a gig or half way through a recording session.
Does it do it on every patch or only on some? I have one patch that is completely clean (straight through) with no effects, noise reduction, boost, with the tone set at flat. You could try setting a patch like that up as a comparison and see if it still does it.
Lastly you could try recalibrating the expression pedal.

1. Unplug the input jack to turn the unit off.
2. Hold down the pedal assign button whilst plugging the input jack back in.
3. The display should read 'dn'
4. Raise the pedal fully and press the store key
5. The display now reads 'UP'
6. Push the pedal fully down to the stop and then release it (it will return slightly)
7. Press the store key again
8. Job done (unless the display reads 'Er' - in which case repeat from step 4)
9. 
   

The Schecter C1 Fr Hellraiser comes with EMG active pickups I believe, did you try replacing the battery? Also unscrew the ends of your 1/4 inch instrument cable and make sure they are soldered properly. I am assuming you are going straight to your amp, not through any pedals?

I take it you have made sure that both the cable to the distortion box from the guitar and the cable to the amp are both good. From the description you give, it sounds like there is no signal getting to the pedal. If the cable is good, then the next likely suspect would be the input jack on the fuzz box. Try wiggling it a little with the guitar cable in place to see if it is loose. Some input jacks are unbelievably cheap and flimsy. A crackling sound (static like) is almost always a bad connection. If it was the output jack, I would think that the guitar signal would come through a least a little bit, but you might want to try wiggling that one, too, if the input jack isn't the culprit.

Another possibility to check is the battery, but this doesn't seem as likely. Some effects units devour batteries, especially units that use 9V batteries. I have a multi effect pedal that kills a 9V in about an hour.
