Let me be clear.. I have tried this Morley pedal without any other effects... just the bass and the amp. There is still hardly any sweep, let alone any effect. I have read another posting, but it didn't help much because the problem was not the same. I have heard about this problem with Morley pedals. I wanted the true bypass.. that's why I bought it. I've also heard about modifing these pedals in order to get the desired sound. That's the help I'm looking for. Thanks
