urbanspaceblast Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Activate the FX Loop and assign it to a switch. This is will be your Blackstar preamp. Then edit the FX Loop block and raise the mix to 100%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilso31 Posted November 23, 2015 Author Share Posted November 23, 2015 Will this allow me to use my distortion from my blackstar? Do I have to turn cabs off etc or will doing this bypass the amps? Thanks for reply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urbanspaceblast Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 What I described will allow you to switch between an amp model and your Blackstar by hitting the loop footswitch. The cab setting is up to you, just try some options and choose what works for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
