Hello
First post here. I'm a Tone Reaper user. I love the pedal, which features prominently for solos and grinding riffs.
I have the TR daisy chained with 6 other pedals. The Fuzz is third in the chain - after compessor and treble booster. The PSU is a standard Roland Boss unit for pedals. All my pedals worked fine until recently. Then yesterday I swapped a couple of modulation pedals on the board, which made the TR to start behaving strangely.
I have no hum or noise issues, but when I strike the strings, the fuzz would make a farty, muffled sound and the volume would drop down. Then, without touching the instruments any further, the volume would gradually increase to the level where it was supposed to be in the first place. It's almost a choking type sensation.
I have run the fuzz with batteries and with a dedicated power supply and both work well. It's just the daisy chaining which does not seem to work in this configuration or it works sometimes. The problem is that the fuzz is located in a spot, which makes a connection with a dedicated power supply quite inconvenient, plus I don't really want to power with a battery.
Any thoughts / tips?

What modulation pedals did you add in to your chain? And have you tried removing them? And are these problems that happen with the modulation pedals engaged, bypassed, or both?
Just trying to get some context for a better answer.
