You need to be more specific. What FX Blocks? Where?

If you are asking aboutthere the FX Loop block for 4CM then check the 4CM guide I referenced previously.
If you are asking about where FX blocks should go in terms of their sequence then try the order mentioned in this doc --> http://line6.com/support/docs/DOC-2523

Well in the 'classic' order of effects: the compressor would go before the amp and the other effects after. Therefore. if you want to use all of those effects then the 4CM inside 4CM message I suggested above may actually be the way to go .

GSP1101 manual is here --> http://www.digitech.com/system/documents/2/original/GSP1101Manual18_0474_B.pdf?1286481757It seems that the effects order is fixed, unlike the POD but that everything is in the classic order. You would cable up as I suggested above and set everything to run at -10dBV (instrument level). The GSP would need a global setup to work with an 'External Preamp' as per page 51 of the printed manual. The Pod setup would be as per the 'first method' here --> http://line6.com/support/docs/DOC-2522 . I cannot really give you the detailed setup for the GSP as I have not used one but try and keep unity levels Throughout

If the layered 4CM thing is just too much then I would simply put the GSP1101 between the POD 1/4" Out and the Amp FX Return. This gives you all the effects after the POD. i.e

Guitar -> Pod input
Pod FX Send --> Amp input
Amp FX Send --> Pod FX Return
Pod Output --> GSP Input
GSP Output --> Amp FX Return

You could also hookup the HD500 Midi Out to the GSP Midi In and keep the patches in sync.

I would like some compression reverb, chorus and delay - all the drive will be from the pod and the amp

Thanks jim :)

Yeah, you can do it. If you really wanted to go nuts you could run a 4CM inside your 4CM (in principle at least ).

The hookup would go

Guitar -> Pod input
Pod FX Send --> GSP Input
GSP FX Send --> Amp input
Amp FX Send --> GSP FX return
GSP Output --> Pod FX Return
Pod Output --> Amp FX Return

By doing this, the setup will give you

Guitar --> POD FX --> GSP FX --> Real Preamp --> GSP FX --> POD FX --> Real Power Amplifier

You could change it around and have the GSP FX wrapping the Pod FX or even some crazy hybrid by messing with the cabling order some more.

I think though that you might just drive yourself nuts if you try and get too clever with all this. What do you want from the GSP?

4CM With HD Pro + GSP1101

support@line6.com — Sat, 14 Jul 2012 13:41:34 GMT

I'm going back to valve amps after a using FRFR setups for a while. So, I'm considering using the 4CM as my next starting point in my never ending quest for ultimate tone and was wondering how I caould also hook up my GSP1101 as well ?

Would i just hook the HD Pro in series with the GSP and use FX blocks in the GSP if I need them (or not) and if so, what about volume levels etc ? I wont use the GSP for amp modelling, that will all come from the Pod but any advice on this would be very much appreciated.

I now await jimsreynolds to leap into the thread with his underpants on the outside of his trousers with all the answers - like he nornally does

Thanks again
