Inputs at L/R. HX STOMP. Write a patch to ignore one side.

[Doezer99]

Hi,

I have a setup for Live Use.  Acoustic guitar in L side. Elec guitar in R side

 

I want to write two different patches for my HX STOMP.

 

A) patch takes acoustic ONLY. Routes it thru a stereo delay and then out the two outputs.

But the elec is still plugged into the R side. This HX STOMP patch just ignores the elec completely.

 

B) patch takes in Elec ONLY from R input. and ignores acoustic from L side  completely.

Then i route that thru a few fx and then send it out either the two outputs, or even a SEND i dont mind.

 

I know this sounds simple but I just cannot program it in on the HX STOMP.

Any help much appreciated please..

 

thanks

You mean the output Left / Right?  Electric will come out of the left side, and acoustic on the right side? 

 

In that case, go to the last block in your chain, the output block.  There you can specify the output gain and stereo panning.  In HX Edit, click on that last block in your chain--it's always in every one of your presets, it's mandatory.  Set the stereo panning to 100% left or 100% right.  You're done.

To answer your specific question:

If you manage to mute the not-in-use guitar itself (turn down the guitars volume knob) a +6dB mono Gain block is enough. You can replace the Gain block by any other mono block if the 6dB level loss when using both L and R inputs doesn't bother you.

 

To mute one input put a Pan block first in the chain and set it 100% left or right depending on the input you want to use.

 

BUT:

If you don't use the fx loop here is an alternative that doesn't need extra blocks: plug the acoustic in the Return L and the electric in In L. Switch between the inputs by selecting the input block and turning the lower knob.

 

And if you need one fx loop: you can plug the acoustic in Return R and use a Return R block first in the chain in your acoustic patches, the FX Loop L block would be for the fx loop.
