Members t_e_l_e Posted August 30, 2016 Members Share Posted August 30, 2016 thx for your insights... i'm tempted but also skeptical. the dry out sounds like a good idea, but in a stereo live situation when there are songs you don't use it, always bypassing the rest of your board and going direct to one amp, might not work well. this asks for a third amp which should be muted if the mel-9 is not used or true bypass looper complex wiring of some kind would be interesting how it sounds if it goes into the right side of a stereo-in delay, while the distorted/modulated other signal goes to the left input... could sound wonderful or create a big mess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members t_e_l_e Posted August 31, 2016 Members Share Posted August 31, 2016 ^yes but again the mixing channel needs to be muted once the mel9 is turned off... it makes a more complicated setup... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True... but that would be true for any guitar synth or similar type of unit, wouldn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
