I am able to determine and control what is designated as the input source. In other words, the mic AND the guitar in both work. The mic does take on the characteristics of the path, like delay or whatever that is unique to it. However, it also takes on the AMP from the other path. So, if I have a treadplate set up with moderate distortion....the mic also has moderate distortion at the same time as it has it's unique path stompbox effects. It's the same with the AUX input. If I designate the AUX input as a source...the same occurs. The path effects are unique to that input. However, there's distortion from the amp.

 

If I remove distortion from the amp, it's removed from both input sources. I believe I am missing something. You probably know exactly what the issue is...but, I don't quite get it.

 

Thanks in advance for all the help!

I'm not sure judging from this response if you looked at the screen I'm talking about in the utilities menu.  You should be able to set TWO DIFFERENT input sources.  So you'd set input 1 to guitar and input 2 to mic.  I think you've done this, but I just wanted to be clear.  That's half the battle.

Then in your signal chain, you need to have TWO amps, with the bottom one turned off or set to no model.  So the chain has to divide before you run into the amp. Put your cursor over the amp and select move, and press up or right, so that you can see the signal split before it hits the amp.  This should automatically cause a second amp to appear in the bottom chain.  Again, make sure that amp is set to bypass.

Finally, you need to mess with the mixer's pan controls, so the guitar isn't completely routed to the left and the mic to the right or vice versa.  Set the pan on both to 0.
