Hx stomp FX Loop (loss of high frequencies)

Hi everyone. please tell me, if you faced such problem on Hx stomp. When you connect a Strymon Timeline delay to the FX Loop, the sound becomes muddy. (loss of high frequencies) Almost all the processing pedals, which I connect via FX Loop sound much worse than in input. The patches are qualitative. I don't understand what is the problem? Thanks in advance!

Hi,

 

The first thing to check is if the Send/Return block is set to instrument or line level. Strymon Timeline, which IIRC has Hi Z inputs and expects an instrument level signal. 
 

Global Settings > Ins/Outs


Hope this helps/makes sense.

Also be sure you are not getting phasing issues. Depending how you are routing and how you are mixing dry/wet in the Strymon, and what loop block you are using (the single fxloop or dedicated send and return blocks), you should always be sure you are not creating phasing issues with two overlapped signals. Mix should be set to 100%, or in the case of Send block, you should also set Dry Thru to -120dB, otherwise the incoming signal passing through the send will phase against the "dry" returning signal from the looper.
