HX Stomp lacking headroom

Hi

My HX Stomp is on my pedalboard. I`m a guitar player. It`s placed in a Musicomlab switcher/looper, so I can put it “in” or “out” of my signal chain. When it`s engaged, I can’t get enough level compared to when it`s not engaged - it seems that it has not enough headroom, I have to turn it all the way up, and even though it`s too low. It` s only present, when I use the effects in the Stomp, not the amp sim and distortion. What can be done to solve that problem?

Best regards from Kim

How, exactly, is the HXS connected (which Ins/Outs)?

How are the levels in Global Settings configured for those In/Outs?

What levels (Inst? Line?) do the Switcher Ins/Outs expect?

Dirty fix if you just need more stomp ... in the Global Settings set the Input to "Instrument Level" and set the Outputs to "LINE LEVEL" and this should increase the levels substantially. 

 

Ultimately... match the input and outputs to what the Switcher is expecting to see then gain stage appropriately.
