Hey guys,
perhaps this has been covered here before, but can anyone explain why I can't figure out my effects loop on my 410HD?
I know what to do; 1st effect input into SEND >>> RETURN back out into output of same effect, or into last effect in chain, with the effects connected in between....correct? Adjust FX level & I'm good right? Oh, and activate the loop button on front.....? It's possible I'm just an idiot & don't know what I'm doing......or, it just doesn't seem to work right. Sometimes it seems to work fine on certain channels; while not really working at all on others...... Anyhow, Ive been extremely busy the past several months, said screw it & just had time to play through my CODE 25 lately.Finally some time, cleaned out & rearranged my garage today & my jam space......cleaned up all my pedalboard spaghetti & really tried to take time & set it up right.Where did I get? NOWHERE! Extremely frustrated.Do I need to cart this head down to the local tech to see if something's wrong? I'm considering getting an all-in-one box, such as a Line 6 M13 & was hoping to just simply use the "4 cable method" : guitar into INPUT.... SEND out into amp SEND loop, amp RETURN loop out to RETURN on box, OUTPUT on box into front end of amp.I'm really tired of power supplies, plugged into each pedal, chaining them together correctly, getting the right ones in front of amp, the right ones into the loop ( that I can't figure out ) & all the other various headaches. I want simplicity, & the 4 channels on the JVM are all I'll ever need, so no need for an amp modeler or whatnot.
My pedal board is a s follows: Line 6 Relay 30 >>> TC Electronics Polytune >>> Crybaby into front of amp. BOSS Space Echo input into FX SEND >>> RETURN into Ernie Ball Ambient Delay output >>> input into EVH Chorus output >>> EVH input into BOSS Space Echo output ......FX Loop button on front engaged, MIX knob on back set to where I can hear it..... only the Chorus seems to work, very subtly.....the Space Echo very barely, the Ernie Ball pedal not at all. Regardless, I'm tired of the inconsistency of this amp's loop.Is it just me, or do I have a lemon? Or do these amps have sketchy loops? FWIW, the amp itself is golden.....if I just plug straight in it works like a motherfucker......
Can anyone please HELP.....!!!
Thanks in advance.
