no no, let me explain (sorry :D )

when i use the distorted channel it works fine. everying sounds great. when i use the clean channel (whether i've used dist or not) it sounds clean, then when i touch the gain knob it sounds scratchy (like a dirty pot, but i tried that) and it picks up gain from channel b as if its crossing over. the distortion cuts in and out like the noise you get when you go to put the lead in your guitar and touch the jack socket for the first time.

it happens when i play too. i'll be playing clean and it'll be ok then it'll fart and pop into distorted but its not switching channels - its almost like i'm playing clean then someone gets a wire and makes the gain from channel b short with the gain from channel a, then wiggles the wire about.

i also cant seem to get any reverb when i use the footswitch. get it fine without, then i insert the jack and it cuts off like i've broke the circuit or something.
