littlespaceman Posted March 22, 2024 Share Posted March 22, 2024 The main reason I sold my Catalyst Mk 1 is that the FX loop was fixed in place pre the effects block, meaning the Catalyst was useless with a looper as any delay effect you added would affect the entire loop, resulting in a complete mess of noise. In comparison the Boss Katana software allows you to change the fx loop position per preset, so you can place it pre or post the effects. Does anyone know if the Catalyst firmware update and/or the new CX amps have this feature? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddieTheTrooper Posted March 31, 2024 Share Posted March 31, 2024 Hi. Some guy asked your question here. Check around 11 minute. Unfortunately I still don't know. This guy who is answering that question seems not sure but looks like he suggest to use looper in FX loop. So maybe it is worth trying. Sadly I cant check this for you. I don't have looper and other pedals to check. Maybe try to contact Line 6 support. They had been always answering my questions. I can send them message because in the future I could be interested using looper with Cat, but you should better describe the issue with looper than me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herę is what answered me suuport: Quote the CX series has the same firmware like a previous (updated) Catalyst It is the same amp, apart from some design changes, so no change here, the FX Loop is fixed in it's position and cannot be moved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
