the latter.

yeah, but keep in mind that the rang has ventilation holes to stop it overheating.

...don't block them

velcro where? -- next to the buttons, or to put a carpet between the pedal board and the rang?

my 'rang is on a Pedaltrain and I'm not sure if putting the pedal board

you'd have to put a bit of carpet between rang and pedalboard.

might help a bit




anyone else try anything?

i'm looking at a Boomerang iii here,
is that what you have?

You're right, there's a definite click there, although
I'd have to say it's never been a problem to me.

Standing the rang on carpet rather than a hard floor helps a bit.

You could take steps to stop the bottom plate from resonating.

Also sound resonates within the chassis of the device, with the air inlet
grill helping
to boost the sound levels.

I haven't tried taking the unit apart I'm afraid.

hi folks,

I'm curious, for those of you who are Boomerang owners - have you tried to silence the clicking sound that the Boomerang pedals make? I remember asking Mike about it a while back and he suggested putting some felt under the buttons -- another idea was to put a more flame-retardant fabric, such as some fabric from children's pajamas.

Has anyone tried to silence their Boomerang clicks?

Would be curious to hear. The clicking sound is too much in small venues, I think.

thank you!,
