    I have a Boss turbo distortion pedal and I noticed by process of elimination thats its killing volume in the effects chain.

    Assume its probably a wiring problem or something but wondering if anyone came across this in Boss TDs or other effects?

    Worth sending for repair? It's quite auld so hoping I don't have to send it to the big gig in the sky :)

    Has this just recently happened or has it been like that always. And when you say it kills the volume do you mean it kills it completely or it reduces the volume considerably? What kind of guitar are you using. I posted a thread which included a similar issue with the BOSS turbo distortion. When I play my les paul through it, the pedal reduces the overall volume. The pedal works fine though with a Tele.

    I don't have an answer for you i'm afraid. But my issue is slightly similar so I'd be interested to hear is it a new problem or one that always existed and have you tried different guitars. Maybe its an issue with the pedal. However if you mean it kills the volume completely then its definitely a different issue.
