Yeah, power source is likely the most probably cause. Usually things like this happen with dying batteries too in delay pedals.

yeah it happened to mine until i used a different power supply.

i use it on a the power loop of a tu-2 tuner with a blues driver and a classic fuzz using the psa supply.

classic fuzz>blues driver>echo park>tuner.

works like a charm.
Fender Classic Player 60’s Stratocaster>East Coast T1 Tele>
Epiphone Les Paul SL>Ovation 12 String acoustic>Peavey Strat DIY Relic

Marshall Origin 20H>James’s old purple 2x10

That's odd. Unless you're using an ungodly amount of pedals that thing should have enough mA. Maybe contact line 6?

yeah it is odd, but i'm gonna hook it up alone tonight and see what's up. I'm only running about 7 or 8 pedals and the echo park is last. i should be able to figure it out, if not i'll contact line 6 about it, i don't think it happened with it when hurb had it. i just wanted to know if this was some kind of common problem that might have a super quick fix
