Any suggestions for ways to reduce or eliminate radio interference? I have a couple of pedals (a fuzz and a vibe) that unfortunately are picking up a lot of radio interference when they're on. The noise occurs with each pedal individually, and of course it's worse when they're both on.
This is at my house. I play music in a room that's off to one side and on its own power circuit. Moving to another room isn't an option. All of the power outlets in this room are on this same circuit, and changing that is not an option, either.
I've tried the vibe on a couple of different adapters (a 1Spot and a PP ISO-5), but that didn't make any difference. The fuzz runs from a 9v battery, so that's already pretty isolated. They are just very prone to picking up RF interference, I guess.
I read the old Analogman FAQ on RF interference. I have not yet tried adding ferrite beads or capacitors, but that may be coming soon. Any other suggestions before I take it to that level?
