Members Peekaboo Fuzzy Posted January 23, 2007 Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 I am interested in using a multi fx box like a vintage Rocktron Intellifex or a TC electronics unit but with two completey different amps at. Set up will be guitar>A/B box splitter Output A> Roland Jazz Chorus for cleansOutput B> Marshall JMP or JCM 800 for distortion JC 120 has an effects loops but if I go with this approach I can only use the one rack fx unit for one amp only. How would I use a rack mixer to be able to use the same fx unit with two amps simulataneously playing--both Amps selected at once--or switching back and forth between clean amp (JC-120) and Marshall? I forgot to mention that I will be using a load box with the Marshall and using the line level out. Then the line level out R/L to inputs of Mosvalve stereo power amp for amplification. For the JC 120 I would just use it's own power amp and not the mosvalve. Can you effects gurus walk me through on how to make this work? Thanks!

Members Peekaboo Fuzzy Posted January 23, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 Sorry me post should have read two separate amps. The JC-120 is solid state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members comfortablynumb Posted January 23, 2007 Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 If I'm reading it right, you should be able to use a normal A/B/Y box. Morley makes one, but a lot of people don't recommend them. I have one, and it's been fine though. Radial makes one I think, and some other places, but I'm not sure who. Edit: You can't run it through the fx loop, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Peekaboo Fuzzy Posted January 23, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 comfortablynumb, thanks, I understand about the ABY box, but what about using one fx unit for both amps? How would that work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
