Rastan Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Hi everyone. (Sorry for my poor english, im from spain)I have a small problem connecting a Digitech Trio + pedal to my gear.I currently have the firehawk fx connected with the four wire method to use the distortion of my Hugghes & Kettner amp when i want.Now I have:Guitar> Firehawk FX Guitar INFirehawk FX Return> H & K Amp SendFierhawk FX Send> H & K Amp InFirehawk FX 1/4 Out> H & K Amp ReturnHow do I connect the digitech trio + without losing the method of the four cables?The connections available in the Digitech Trio + are:- Guitar In- Amp Out- Mixer Out- Fx Send- Fx SendThank you very much for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richiecat Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 This is how I would do it: Guitar > Digitech Trio+ Guitar In Digitech Trio+ FX Send > Firehawk FX Guitar In Firehawk FX Send> H & K Amp In H & K Amp Send > Firehawk FX Return Firehawk FX 1/4 Out > Digitech Trio+ FX Return Digitech Trio+ Amp Out > H & K Amp Return Also if you have a separate PA type amp/speaker connect the Trio+ Mixer Out to it it's input - then you will get the bass & drums through the PA and guitar sounds from your H & K Amp. If you don't have anything plugged into the Trio+ Mixer Out, it will send everything through the guitar amp output (guitar/bass/drums) which might not sound quite as good as a guitar amp is not really designed to handle those kinds of things ;-) Let me know if you get stuck and ill see what I can do to help Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suedehead99 Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Have you tried putting it between Firehawk FX 1/4" Out and H&K Amp Return in your last step? Surely you would want the Trio to be unaffected by any Firehawk effects but be amplified. And BTW, no need to apologise for your English. It's much better than my Spanish ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rastan Posted June 23, 2017 Author Share Posted June 23, 2017 Thanks Just Startin'. I tried your recommended config and it doesn't works. I don't know what it's wrong. Could you give a clue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's much better than my Spanish ;) You need to have a clean guitar signal going into the Trio+'s guitar input as it needs this to be able analyse chord progressions etc when you "teach" it an arrangement. But the Trio+ also includes a looper and it uses the signal from it's FX return jack, so you can record loops with effects applied etc. and play over with different effects.. Hope this makes sense ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you get any sound at all? When happens if you unplug cables from the Trio+ send and return jacks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richiecat Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Does this help? Pretty sure this will work... Thanks Just Startin'. I tried your recommended config and it doesn't works. I don't know what it's wrong. Could you give a clue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cebreez Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 If you are using the fx loop of the Firehawk then make sure it is turned on (enabled). Using your app select it as you would any of the effects and make sure it is turned on. Not assuming anything just know I did that and for half a day I couldn't figure why I had no sound coming out.
