suggetions for humming on reverb

Post by jackson649 »

i built a dumble clone with reverb and wondering why when i increase the reverb, the humming increases. I'm using regular video rca cords that you for tv/dvd players. could that be the trouble?

RCA chords

You need RCA chords where the inner wire is shielded by the outer. Is that what you have? OR ....... do you have a ground loop in the reverb or a bad solder joint?

With respect, 10thtx

You might need more filtering for the power supply in that ckt.
