Hey guys,

I've had my Crown Jewel together for awhile now. It was the first kit I put together from BYOC and it sounds badass. I have noticed something strange with the way this pedal interacts with some of my other pedals.

I use a boss NS-2 noise suppressor after the Crown Jewel to cut gain noise. However, the noise reduction never really seems to activate unless I dime the threshold knob on the NS-2 or dime the level knob on the Crown Jewel.

I use an MXR carbon copy analog delay after the crown Jewel and the carbon copy seems to drop a repeat or two. This only happens when it is in the signal chain after the Crown Jewel.


It seems to me that something is going on with either the output level, impedance, or both. Not sure where to start checking resistor values, although I don't think the values are wrong as I always use a multimeter to check each resistor value before installing it.

Hopefully this isn't too vaguely worded! I appreciate any responses :D

Have you tried running the CJ in the noise reduction loop of the NS-2? That's where I have mine (along with the rest of my "dirt" pedals; NS-2 Send-->dirt pedals & boosts-->NS-2 Return) and I don't have these interaction issues with my other pedals.

Does your crown jewel have the 7660 charge pump or the 1054 charge pump?
