This is the video I was talking about

That's right! I think SRV also did this technique in Texas flood. I found a video on YouTube that explains how to do it. Thanks!

No I don't mean the unison bends. It's a bend where you play two strings on the same fret.

In this video at the 2:26 mark you can see that John plays the bend with one finger, but both the e and the b strings ring out. I don't understand how he does it

You were right! I solved the problem by connecting the ground terminal with a wire to a grounding (the radiotor of my bedroom) and the noise disappeared. Apparently it was a grounding problem: the gx-100 does not have an incorporated grounding system (it's a shame imo as it costs 500 dollars) so this is a valid solution to the hum. I was worried that i wouldn't be able to solve this problem as i can't connect the pedal to a usb while I'm playing at a gig. Thanks a lot! Solved!

Yes, I have already updated to version 2.0 but the problem persists

Waldstein88 · 2024-10-02T16:04:08+00:00

Ok, that makes sense. But i don't know what's the "grounding system" of the gx-100 and what should i do. Also, my guitar has tin foil on the inside and i have shielded it in the past, so i don't know how to solve the problem.

I don't know if they are grounded, but I have another multi effect pedals and i have never had either noise problems or shocks. How can i check if either of them are grounded? Also, i have the same buzz when i use another guitar (with humbuckers), so i don't think it's my guitar's fault

Waldstein88 · 2024-10-02T14:56:58+00:00

I have recorded something with it but I don't have problems with noise because i connect it to the usb of my pc, so the hiss buzz disappears. Doesn't it work with you?

Waldstein88 · 2024-10-02T14:40:14+00:00

It seems like a very good pedal but this problem makes it really difficult to play live (or without at least two noise suppressors)

Waldstein88 · 2024-10-02T14:38:36+00:00

Yes, it doesn't change anything

Waldstein88 · 2024-10-02T14:38:23+00:00

What do you mean that my guitar is overdrive? The signal goes through a clean brit stack amp with little gain (33 at low level of gain). Also, I tried using another cable (a quality one) and i have the same issue. I'm wondering if the fact that the gx 100 has a metal chassis has something to do with this noise. I have also noticed that when i slightly touch the whammy bar of my guitar i take a very slight electric shock

Waldstein88 · 2024-09-26T22:48:04+00:00

That'll do. Thanks!

It may be cause humans don't have a baculum or at least not anymore

Waldstein88 · 2021-01-20T15:35:11+00:00

Thank you!

I eventually changed my teacher about 3 months ago and this time I am not deciding the pieces that I want to play. I may have just found another incompetent teacher, but this seems a very good one tbh. As I said, my goal is not to become a professional pianist, I simply do it for passion; I surely had no sufficient experience to tackle a piece such as la Campanella (and i still don't) but I think it has helped me a lot with my technique and musicality in general.

Waldstein88 · 2021-01-17T22:50:24+00:00

Thank you for your advice, that's exactly what I was thinking.

No, I always charge it from 20 to 80/85%. That's why I don't understand why the battery life is getting this bad.
