like sometimes, my signal gets chopped into half the original volume. ok ok enuff said lets do a diagnostic NOW.
---------------
MY SETUP.
Jap Tele->Boss FV-300L Volume Pedal->Crybaby Wah ( possible problem )-> edwin-modded ds-1->analogman ts-9->ce-5->phase 100->echo park (buzz)->fender deluxe 900
---------------
What I think causes the problem.
ok. so yesterday, i was playing live with my band for this event called passion ac, in my school. i was doing some sound checks with this setup, then suddenly, my volume, and gain (from the volume cut) was CUT. i thought, eh why liddat. and so i tried bypassing my wah, excluding it from the set, so im running my signal from the volume pedal, into my ds1 and so on. after that, everything was ok for awhile, and then when we were rehearsing, with the wah cut out, the volume OSO diminished!, i was using the volume pedal as usual but the sound got cut, so then i ran the signal straight into my ds1 and so forth, then everything was okay.
wad annoys me is that i cant figure out:
1) Where the hell that buzz comes from. cos although my friend tells me its a single-coil thing, but i off-ed my volume from both my guitar and the volume pedal, but there was still a buzz, and a soft beeping sound, in line with the tempo that my echo park was doing. im using a ps-25 pedalboard, and the power is sort of individual if im not mistaken, and on harmony central there were mixed reviews w.r.t this buzzing issue.
2) Why the Wah sometimes can work, sometimes cannot work. seriously, its like it has a mood or sth. cos sometimes, it works perfectly, sometimes, the volume gets cut or totally GONE!
3) could it be my amp? cos when the tech ppl stored it, it was placed the front facing up, meaning the back of the celestion speaker was on sth. then when we were playing there was this buzz from the back of the amp, from the tubes i think, so i hit the top of the amp a couple of times and the sound didnt go away but became softer, so i was like heck it.
4) could it be the patch cables itself? oxidized perhaps? dont think so, but its a possibility. the cables were the yellow neutrik ones from luther.
5) Why the hell didnt i buy myself a flightcase pedalboard or a misse one.

This is an appeal for intelligent replies too. thangew.

whats your amp???
you can either ground by cutting up the current wire to groun it
i think someone posted the instructino here
if not yuo amp the power wire is those same as CPU the power wire then just go to sim lim and get a 3pin plug to plug in
thats what i did to myu AD30

Everything in your signal path from guitar to amp should be suspect but not to worry if you follow a simple but logical troublshooting procedure of isolating the devices one by one until you find the culprit. Best to start by pluugin straight into the amp 1st and see if you detect intermittence in levels and noises, followed by individual pedals with their respective patch cables and power supply. Whether it's neutrik or monster or watever cables will still breakdown under natural wear and tear conditions of gig setups. Try it.

Have you heard the parallel universe? I'm building one for my friend. It's similar to the fuzz factory in functions. The tone is different though.

When I had my J&H on board I removed all the rubber feet. You might wanna remove the battery cover too, it sticks out without the rubber feet. Just use the velcro to paste over the resulting hole 
Thor: Sure thing, I'll build one and anyone who wants to try can
