Noise with hx stomp in thr10

[Valgua]

Hi!

 

Today I tried connecting my hx stomp to the aux in of my thr10 using a Y cable (two mono 1/4 inch jacks to a 1/8 inch jack) the result was, however, quite a bit noisier than when I use my headphones whenever some distortion was engaged. Is the difference between headphones and thr speaker normal? Is there some way to handle the noise beyond using a noise gate with every preset? I have tried changing the output level from instrument to line with little effect. 

 

EDIT: After a more careful comparison I don't think that there is a great difference between the headphones and the THr10. The noise gate solves the problem. I wonder, however, if there is some global setting I missed that would reduce noise when modelled distortion pedals are engaged.

Try using the HX Stomp headphones out rather than the regular outputs. Use a 1/4” TRS to 1/8” stereo adapter.

 

Not sure this will help but worth a try.

Thanks! After a more careful comparison I realize that the difference in noise isn't really there. However, I still wonder if there is some global setting that would reduce noise when the simulated distortion pedals are engaged. A noise gate does obviously solve the issue, but it's not a global setting.
