This may be blasphemy, but I am trying to run a fender preamp block from the helix into the FX return of a Marshall Silver Jubilee mini combo. I have been using the four cable method to connect helix to the amp.
The Silver Jubilee has two channels sort of. There’s a clean channel and a lead channel. However, if you pull the rhythm clip knob out on the clean, you get a good crunch sound out of the clean channel.
So my problem lies within snapshots. I made a preset.
block 1 is fender preamp block
block 2 is fx loop 1 block (where the marshall preamp lives via 4cm)
in snapshot 1 i have fender pre block on, fx 1 off
in snapshot 2, vice versa of 1.
Whenever I change a snapshot though, it usually leaves the fender preamp block still engaged. I have gone into my global parameters and made sure that the snapshot recall is not on manual. I also save after changing snapshots too. Is it the nature of the preamp block that will not allow me to have it switched on and off? Or do I have to assign it to a foot control? Am I stuck using presets? I dont mind but the switch bw preset drip out could be a problem.
I had a third snapshot with fx 1 on and external amp switch engaged to go to lead. Basically trying to do a 3 channel amp thing. From snap 2 to 3 everything a la marshall worked
Any advice?
