Sensates Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I setup two amps with their own IRs on two different/split paths (path 1A and 1B) in a patch with a switch assigned to switch between them (to save block space). I can get it to work but I noticed the sound is different than having those two amps and IRs on the same path, or in other patch where the amps are setup individually. What did I do wrong there? And what is possibly the best setup to have more than one amp with IRs setup within a patch without using snapshots? I'm very new to effects modeler and complex signal chain so please bear with me on this. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbatts Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 If you are feeding the two amps/cabs with a "Y" split, you are hearing the signal going through both paths at the same time (parallel). You should be using an "A/B" split. Set A 100% to path A and set B 100% to path B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraigGT Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I also think that a Y split gives -3dB on each path so there'll be less drive to the amps. Craig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CraigGT Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I don't think you do, I discovered that when I put a delay in a parallel path with the aim of keeping my direct signal as clean as possible that the volume dropped. I put a 3.5dB gain block in the straight through and used the delay with mix to 100 and switched it in by switching it's level up and down.
