Has anyone used one of the loops in an HX Effects for send and return of an EHX Superego?

Just curious how it worked and how you you did it.  Thanks, sh

Can"t speak to the EGO, but I've regularly run Synth9, String9, Mel9, C9, Keys9 - there's always a POG on my board.  Works a treat.  Routing wise I put the sends first after the input (w/a compressor before to even out the signal), bring the returns in after amp/cab/gtr fx but before delay/verb to get some wet on'em.  In some configs I put return levels on a foot pedal for fine level control/fades.  Go for it, you'll be fine.

 

Edit - Oh, I missed where you have an FX.   Never mind - anybody else?

I'm still getting to know both the HXFX and the Superego.  The latter has a built-in loop primarily for modulation effects.  POGs and little Zoom multi-effects stompers seem to be the most popular options.  I was mainly planning to use this for the Freeze function but thought as long as it's attached to a central effects processor; what the heck?  I've got a spare Send/Return. 

 

The attached sketch is how I've got it cabled for Wet/Dry/Wet just waiting on a pair of SoundOn plugs for the power amp.  The dirt is in-front of the HXFX which includes the Superego.  Those get used sparingly.  Loop 1 is the send to the dry amp which returns to the HXFX through the speaker line-out.  Not sure I need the return coming back.  The main outs are for the wet side.

 

Among the things I'm wondering is how to create the second loop in the HX Edit function.  Thanks for looking, Skip
