Hi, I play with a stereo rig and I'd like to use the effects on one side only when i need, just as Van Halen did. I've a Hardwire Chorus pedal, two Line6 M5 and a EHX Cathedral, all in stereo. Can I do this by my Pbc?
Thanks
Yes, put those pedals in loops 7-10. Put the "Mono -> Stereo (out)" button and the "Mono Output" button in the IN position. Connect Output B to the amp that you want to have effects. Connect Output 5-6 to the amp that you don't want to have effects. If you get hum coming out of the amps, turn on Iso B.
I forgot to say that i use a Pre/Power amp rig. I run my signal from Output 5/6 to the Preamp In, then I run from the Preamp Out into the Loop 7/10 IN and from the A and B output i run into the two channel of the power amp set in STEREO. Can I do It anyway?
Thanks. I was also thinkin about a change that maybe can help me. If i run from Pbc' s A e B OUTPUT into the INPUTS of a ROCKTRON INTELLIFEX I can go from both its OUTPUTS into the INPUTS of the power amp putting the effects only on OUTPUT LEFT or RIGHT. Is it correct?
That would work if the Intellifex can be configured to have effects only on one side, I don't know for sure that it can. It would also be easy to go from the PBC's A output to the Intellifex and the B output straight to the power amp. That would insure that only one side has effects.
Hi.
I Have/Had a setup like that mixing it all in a (CAE) Dual line mixer in the rack.
Ch 5-6 out from the PBC to the preamp and split back to the PBC and the mixer.
Then in channel 2 in the mixer alle the wet stuff.
That makes it possible to mix W/D in one stereo cab, or Dry in left side and Wet in Right side, or to 2 different amps.
Depending how you take it out of the mixer. So very dynamic setup.
BUT!!
Since the wet stuff is digital (Latency) it introduced a lot og phasing problems in the mixer between the D/W
In some setup the mix worked like a charm but sometimes it just phased out a lot of the signal.
I recently changed it so the PBC now is the primary mixer and that works without problems.
But I do mis being able to set the overall W/D ratio on the mixer.
