Weird 4cm question

[philthethrill21]

Hello.  I have a weird question for setting up 4cm in my pedal chain.  I want to run my HX One after my drives (used for delay and modulation mostly) and before my Strymon Deco and Flint.  And then I would like to have it ran again using the 4cm at the end in case I wish to use the looper.  Is that possible and would I need to change my cabling anytime I wanted to do it this way?  I want to run everything in front of the amp btw.  Sorry about the confusion.  Im probably making a mountain out of a mole hill.

 

For visual:  Regular connection - Tuner>OD>Fuzz>HX1>Deco>Flint>Amp
                   4CM   - Tuner>OD>Fuzz>HX1>Deco>Flint>Back to HX1?> Amp?
 

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi. I think that's pretty straightforward 4cm wiring. I use it with the AMP EMULATOR - Atomic Amps Firebox - but you can use any amp modelling unit - Tonex, Strymon Iridium etc.

This is a signal chain: (lets enumerate HX ONE top side connection sockets left to right 1-2-3-4)

Guitar --> Drive -> HX ONE 4 , HX ONE 3 -> OUT of the amp modeller, HX ONE 2 -> IN of the any effects you want to keep AFTER the amp, like Delay, Reverb etc., HX ONE 1 -> IN of the amp modeler. And final signal is coming from OUT of those Delay/Reverb which come last.

Set HX ONE to INSERT mode and play with PRE/POST setting for each preset you use on HX ONE: basically it moves HX ONE before the amp modeler (for filters, drives, compressors, synths etc.) or after amp modeler (for delays, reverbs etc.)

So in your case - you don't use amp modeler and have Strymon Deco/Flint instead. Your signal path will look like this:
Guitar ->Drive -> HX ONE 4, HX ONE 3 -> OUT of Flint or Deco (the last one), HX ONE 2 -> input of the amp, HX ONE 1 -> IN of Flint or Deco (the first one)

Tell me if it help.
