Dry Signal Mixed With Amp Sim And Horrible Feedback

Hello,

 

I feel like I"m posting here once a week.  It's occuring to me that perhaps I'm not ready for such an advanced peice of music gear.  Anyway,

 

I have the HD500X running l/mono out into a peavey classic 50/50 power amp into my 412 cabinet. I'm running the power amp in stereo to the single stereo 412 cab (to match impedance).

 

I have two issues:

 

One, I have it set up for dual amp mode.. top amp is soldano clean full version... and then i step on the footswitch and it turns off the clean and turns on the bottom amp soldano overdrive.  The clean sounds great, but when I turn on the overdrive (switch amps) I have the amp model and the dry signal mixed together.   I have tried turning down the level on channel one and two to see if the wet signal is being routed to one channel only, but that's not the case.  Both channels are getting equal amounts of wet and dry signal. Obviously I don't want the dry signal in there. Is there a setting I'm not aware of in the amp blocks?????

 

Also, I'm getting a  weird feedback when I turn on the overdrive and delay.. (video attached)... Its like no feedback I've ever heard before.  I have tried the noise gate, but that doesn't stop it. I have tried in all output settings and even line/guitar mode and it still does it.  I have a fair amount of gain, digital delay, and ducking reberb... It just turns into a loud hissing metallic noise.

 

 

HERE is the Video of the weird feedback:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ki9tVUeBnCE&feature=youtu.be

 

 

thank you and sorry for posting so much!

A couple of things you need to try I think...

 

You need to turn the "Bypass Volume" to 0 on each amp model....You can only set this when the amp model is disabled....Once you do this, you will likely need to rebalance the channel vol when the amp is enabled...

 

One suggestion I have is that you try using the PRE versions of the amp models you are using...Since you have a nice tube power amp a FULL model is kinda overkill IMHO and you get a bit more DSP for other things too...

Thanks for the reply buddy!  I'll try to switch settings this weekend when I get back to my practice spot and see if that works.

 

Did you by any chance listen to that clip i posted? That is some of the most gnarly Feedback(???) I have ever heard.  Wasn't sure if it was normal or not.

Thanks spaceatl!  This solved the dry signal problem.  Now if only I can get a handle on this horrific feedback...

Sorry, when I originally read your post I did not see the video link...Right now I am on a network that blocks it, but can take a listen later on...

 

meanwhile, horrific feedback can come from a lot of places...Does this feedback happen the same way with another guitar?
