evh5150combo Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I've searched in the forum but didn't find a solution: my problem is the Pitch Glide effect. I've set the mix at 100% but I still hear a bit of dry signal and not only the octave higher. Can anybody help me? Matteo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duncann Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 How do you have your patch setup? Posting a screenshot would be helpful. It could be that if you have the pitch glide in one of the paths and the other path is not muted, that could be where the dry signal is coming from.

evh5150combo Posted October 9, 2014 Author Share Posted October 9, 2014 Thanks for your reply. I'm using hd500 only for fx with my evh5150iii so it's connected via 4cm. I've set up path a and path b completely separated, so A is panned completely right and b completely left; input A is "guitar" and input b is "aux". In this way I can use the second path for a wet dry setup, or for a sound on sound effect, and the signal are not merged together (I still cannot understand why putting two inputs in this unit and then merging them on the outputs). So i'm only playing with a pitch glide in path A, going into FX loop (my amp's pre) and then to the output. I've tryed muting path b or moving the pitch glide block in another place, but I still have a little Dry signal coming out from the amp together with pitched signal. Maybe it's the quality of this effect which is not good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncann Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 I don't think the effect is supposed to do what you're hearing. And after listening really close, with headphones, I don't hear any dry signal at all through the full range of the effect on an HD500X. I'm at a loss to explain it. Perhaps a global reset might fix it? Hold the left arrow while powering on, then change the system menu settings back to your liking. I think the pedal might need recalibration also, after a global reset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evh5150combo Posted October 9, 2014 Author Share Posted October 9, 2014 But can I reupload my patches after a global reset??? Anyway this evening I wanna try disabling the FX loop. I want to understand if the problem belongs to the effect itself or to the signal routing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncann Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 A global reset doesn't wipe any user defined patches, but it does reset the name of the setlists. You could also just save all your patches (either individually, as setlists, and/or as a batch) before the global reset and upload them after.

phil_m Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Depending on how you have the effect blocks placed in your signal paths, it is still possible that you're inadvertently splitting your signal somewhere along the line. Any chance you could post the tone you're having problems with up here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfsmith0 Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Could this be a left/right stereo thing, not a path A/B thing? I can't remember which FX are mono/stereo but maybe the shift is operating on half of the signal and what you're hearing is coupling between left/right channels.

duncann Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 The pitch glide is a mono effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
