lancegw Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Help! A speedy changeover at a festival yesterday, connected my HD500 using 4 cable method - plugged in, turned on... Nothing....! Ended up gigging straight into the amp. Got home and tested all leads, amp effects loop etc - they're all fine. Then tried HD500 with headphones - strong signal coming through...! So the HD appears to be working - all leads are ok - amp loop is still a poss weak link but it's a Dual Rec, built like a tank, never had dramas with it... Any ideas??

bjnette Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Seems like your under a process of elimination. Try another pedal or rack effect thru the power amp to rule out your first suspect. Oh you did that. The FX loop on the HD has a send and return level. Could be that. and double check the cabling again is all I can think of.

TheRealZap Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 some effects loop/returns won't work with nothing in the main 1/4 input.... have you tried this with a guitar cable also in the input? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilmikehoo Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Well, I AM getting old and senile, but, every once in a while - when I'm rushing to get it done - and not really paying attention..........I put the cables in reverse order!!
