Re: [Evolver] Strange overload fx-input

You don't tell us what output level you are using., which is the most 
important thing.  If you have it set at 100 that will explain it. The evo 
has a lot of volume and distorts easily. I normally run the output at no 
more than 39, if you still have clipping at this level I'd suspect a fault
