Pre-sales: Amp + Cab block, turn cab off?

Hi there, couldn’t see this in the manual so sorry if it’s answered somewhere.

 

If you use the Amp + Cab block, can you disable the cab part of the block when you use a real amp? Obviously, using separate amp and cab blocks achieves this but then you lose an effects block - right?

 

Cheers, Ben

No.


Dumb question, if you turn-down the level on the cab only, do you still hear the amp? If so, this would disable the cab - right?

Bummer but thank you.

Why?

I use separate amp and cab blocks all the time. I tend to use dual cabs and save them as Favorites so that I can drop them in quickly with both is not possible with amp+cab blocks.

It's nice to have the amp+cab option but I'd only use it for complex patches which I never needed until now.

If you are thinking of buying a Helix Floor or LT... this is not an issue as there are 32 blocks to work with. If you are planning on buying a STOMP or STOMP XL... that's when it may be a concern. That said... I use an LT and have a Stomp as a backup... I have no problems laying out useable presets on a stomp, I just can't cram everything into one preset.

Thanks Guys,

 

I’ve purchased a Stomp as pedalboard space is tight with more unique effects so yes, 8 blocks is painful. As-is the block using its DSP when added, not when turned-on IMHO but all good.
 

Cheers, Ben
