Daddy_Rocker Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 I have a 500HDX and am looking for a simpler interface. One thing that comes in handy of the 500X when playing through a guitar amp using the 4 cable method is the ability to use a pre-amp model in the 500HDX and then using the FXloop to buy pass the guitar amp preamp and only using the power amp portion of the guitar amp. I see on the firehawk you can select "no amp" but is there away to use model preamps as I described on the 500HDX? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bond19 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Yes, but it depends on the amp you are using, I use the four cable method on my valvestate marshall head, bug you have to have the effects level on it 100% wet, then no preamp bleeds into the mix.

mcbeddall Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Like bond says you can set up a 4CM but there are no "preamp only models" on the Firehawk apart from "tube instrument preamp" which I think is meant for vocals or keys etc, the app is free to download, you should have a look at that and you can see for yourself what amps are available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
