rd2rk Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Assuming that you put the correct FX Loop Block in your signal chain, sounds like a cabling problem. Guitar>LT Input>LT FX Loop Send>Amp Input>Amp FX Loop SEND> LT FX Loop Return>LT L/Mono OUT>Amp FX Loop RETURN Also, make sure that the FX Loop on the amp is enabled, some amps allow you to disable the FX Loop. If you run a cable directly from the amp's FX Loop SEND to it's FX Loop RETURN and connect your guitar to the amp's input and get sound, it's working. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive actually tried the "effects loop 1" block -----in addition to: separate "send 1" and " return1" blocks thanks I'll double check everything. I probably have a cable crossed...yeah the evh 5150iii effects loop can only be turned on with the footswitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
