Hey Hey all, so the deal is I am a new user to the Helix floor. I just installed HX Edit and HX installer update 2.8. I am running the 4CM and using the recommended send and return setup I have seen in a few videos ->
AMP is a 2008 Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier
Using Send/Return #1
Guitar to Helix In Helix Send to the front of amp Amp loop send to Helix Return Amp return to Helix Out
All is good. I place an effects loop in the preset and set to loop #1. Get sound and all good. I place a distortion and chorus in front of the loop, all good there. Put a delay after the effect loop in the preset and ..... nothing. No effect can be heard. I turn the loop off and get no sound at all. So the question is, why can’t I hear my delay set in the loop? Is it normal to lose all sound when turning the loop off? If I have the distortion and chorus in the front should I at least hear that? I spent an hour moving cables around and screwing around with the Mesa foot-switch engaging the loop on and off, bypassing the loop, switching cables .. nothing seemed to work.
Any ideas?
This is step one, next is to set up MIDI switching to I can automatically switch channels but one thing at a time.
