Linking HX stomp and HX FX via send return

[Szlartibartfast]

Hi all, so I would oove some help with a routing issue.

1) I use stomp for my guitar fx

2) I use HX FX for sax fx

These both have separate inputs and outputs. Guitar goes to amp, sax to speaker....however....I would like to run both through the same delay and eq pedal.

What I tried, was:

 

Create a stereo FX block in stomp. Using Send output of stomp, into pedals, then into return of HX FX. FX block in HX FX, then use send out of HX FX into stomp return. Does not work.

 

I can isolate the send/return using just stomp and it works fine, but does not play with HXFX. Am I cabling this wrong or using the wrong blocks?

Cheers

If I understand what you are trying to do, unless the external pedals are capable of dual-mono operation you're not going to be able to route the two signals discretely to separate outputs (Sax>Speaker, Guitar>Amp).

Actually, now I think about it., it won't work because there is no direct signal coming from one unit to the other. Back to the drawing board.

You can easily use sends and returns to route the signal wherever you want it, but even if you're ok with using the blocks (both devices have 8 block limits), once you've combined the signals into the mono pedals there's no way to separate them again - both signals will be in both playback devices.
