RE: Interactive-Graphical Tour of a Guitar System



Title: Message
Thanks, Andy. I agree, especially about the reverb. Before I hooked this system up, I was using my Alesis Nanoverb reverb in the AUX of the mixer and it sounded much better.  Now that I have the LXP-1, it should be an even greater improvement, and other players who plug into my mxer can enjoy that high quality Lexicon reverb rather than me hogging it to my self.  If I just had three stereo AUX loops!!! Arggggg. I would run the EDP in one, reverb in one, and one of my problematic units in another...namely the LXP-5. For some reason the LXP5 is louder in bi-bass than when it is wet, unless any of the other units, which I can level with no problems.
 
...guess I have my re-wiring work cut out for me this week. :)

hi Krispen,
It seems your signal passes through an awful lot of devices.
Might be worth checking the quality of the bypass on those units.

...and as you've got a mixer in your setup, no need to stick to an 'all in series' configuration.

For instance, you could run the EDPs on the Alt3-4 outputs of your 1202 mixer, and bring them
back on a stereo channel.
The EDP mix controls are then both put to max and forgotten. 
...and it's then dead easy to run a mic into the EDPs if that becomes necessary.

Also it's worthwhile putting a reverb on an aux send, one advantage being that reverb
will sound more natural after the EDPs. ( because of loop boundaries, and reverse).

Or put a chain of FX on each aux send, bringing them back on a stereo channel.

I really liked the sound demos you did,
great stuff.
