Hello guys,
I have a hybrid setup with an HX Stomp acting as the core of it.
The signal flows in this way:
GTR ->Pedal Pawn Fuzz -> Crybaby->Vertex Effects Buffer Interface-> Hx stomp Input
I have some ODs in the LEFT effect loop
Right effect loop is used when I want to use a real amp with 4CM
Left output goes to Amp return when using 4CM, L/R outputs go to FOH otherwise.
I built the pedalboard to have the maximum flexibility in terms of routing.
Now, when using the Stomp with amp sims I noticed a high pitched feedback/squeal (like a microphonic pickup type of squeal), the only fact is that I was playing with headphones so any microphonic pickup issue should be off the table, I also tried to switch guitars and to my surprise nothing changed. I went through the troubleshooting and I plugged the guitar directly intop the Stomp and I could go with the highest of the gains without problems, I also plugged into the PP Fuzz and the Wah bypassing the buffer interface and I came to the conclusion that the "problem" is the buffer interface.
Do you have any explanation for that? That interface cost me a lot and I would not like to sell it or to put it off the board.
Thank you in advance for the answers.
