Deon55 Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Is it possible to run 2 line 6 hx effects together in to one amp? If so how would you guys do it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codamedia Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 You can run one directly into the next one (outputs of unit 1 > inputs of unit 2) Or you can put one into an FX Loop of the other unit.... The only downside is that you are going through multiple AD/DA conversions. FWIW, I used to run an HX Effects in the Loop of my HD500. That setup worked without any issues and I used it until I upgraded to a Helix LT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every conversion degrades the signal slightly. It would be like taking two audio tapes and constantly rerecording/bouncing something several times. Each dub adds noise. Of course it isn't as obvious in this digital format but it does happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
