Stratojoe17 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 I am using a Fender Strat with an output impedance of 7 kOhms when using single coils and 4 kOhms when using combination of pick-ups. The only setting (In-Z) on the HX Stomp coming close to that is 10kOhms. There is no value under it. Do you recommend to switch to "Auto" or 10 kOhms ?

rd2rk Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Input impedance is what the effect mfr designed his device at, so that it gets the sound he wanted by loading the pickups a certain way. IOW, I don't really know why the FX mfrs used the input impedance values they did, but you DO NOT have to match your guitar's output impedance. If you set it to AUTO, Helix matches the input impedance to the specs of the first active effect in the chain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
