Metal Zone MT-2 troubleshooting audio

Hi, I was given a Metal Zone MT-2 pedal (used) as a gift and have been trying to get it to work properly, but alas no luck so far. I have a compressor pedal that is 1 of 2 pedals in the signal chain into my amp.

Bass-> Compressor pedal (wall adapter only) -> Metal Zone (9volt battery) -> amp

That is my signal chain, here is what I've tried:

Swapping all of my cables, replaced the battery in the pedal.

As of right now, when the compressor is OFF and the pedal is OFF I hear a buzz. When the compressor is ON and the pedal is OFF I hear a buzz. When the compressor is ON and the pedal is ON I hear NO SOUND. When the compressor is OFF and the pedal is ON it works, but it sounds off to me.

Any tips/ suggestions before trying to get it repaired / inspected?
