Why are my guitar pedals making noise?

Static noise is an inconsistent crackling, like a bad cable or guitar jack would make, which is often caused by a loose connection in the pedal—in one of the jacks, wires or the switch. It can also be caused by a very sick component (transistor, e.g.). White noise, a sort of a hissing sound, is another common type.
