Orange Getaway Driver - doesn't work after power off and on

Post by jupiterpm » Thu Feb 07, 2019 11:53 am

Hi, I have a problem with this gear. When I put it for the first time in my pedalboard, everything works fine. But after powering off the pedalboard and then powering on, the Getaway Diver stopped working. Led is lit, I can switch it on and off using footswitch but there is no signal outputed from pedal. The solution is to physically disconnect powering cable (on the pedal side or the power supply side - it doesn't matter) and connect it again. Then pedal starts work properly. Described situation remains every time I switch pedalboard off.
The power supply is CIOKS Shizophrenic, but I tried this pedal with other power supply and the problem is the same.

Did you buy it new?

If so, I would send it back and get it replaced/repaired under guarantee.

If you bought it 2nd hand, can you return it to the seller as it's faulty?

It was 2nd hand buy but I'm waiting for original invoice and then probably I will contact the Orange reseller.
I'm just curious if this is the problem with my gear only or it's standard problem with Getaway Driver.
