HD500 Guitar input to mono Left XLR out, Aux to mono Right XLR outputs

[erjent]

Hi All,

 

Don't know how to get this done in a simple way.  I need to plug my Acoustic Guitar in to Aux In and have it come out the Right XLR only, and my electric guitars into Guitar In and come out Left XLR only.  I'm guessing I can not use any Stereo FX.  

 I set a patch for Acoustic and in the mixer I panned Path A to 100% R and Path B to 100% R but muted. I set a patch for Electric and panned both paths 100% Left with Path A muted. I think I'm getting Path and Inputs mixed up. 

In my Acoustic patch I set Input 1 and 2 for Aux. In my Electric patch I set Input 1 and 2 for Guitar and Variax.

 

Not sure where to go from here.

 

Thanks,

Here's how I would do it:

 

Electric Patch:

Input 1: Guitar

Input 2: Variax (to reduce noise)

Use both Signal Paths A&B as you see fit.

Put the mixer at the end of the signal chain and pan both Signal Paths A&B hard Left.

Put only mono FX, if any, after the mixer.

 

Acoustic Path:

Input 1: Aux (so you still get the tuner)

Input 2: Variax

Use both Signal Paths A&B as you see fit.
Put the mixer at the end of the signal chain and pan both Signal Paths A&B hard Right.
Put only mono FX, if any, after the mixer.

 

But you could also do this:

Input 1: Guitar

Input 2: Aux

Keep Signal Chain A to only Input 1

Keep Signal Chain B to only Input 2

Put the mixer at the end of the signal chain and pan Signal Paths A&B hard Left/Right, respectively.
Put only mono FX, if any, after the mixer.

 

The advantage here is that a single patch could be used for both. Perhaps this will help tap dancing a bit.

The disadvantages are:

1) you lose the tuner on Input 2

2) you only have 8 FX blocks total for both signal paths together.
