Q2 used in a send/return FX loop

[stratdeluxe]

Hi everyone,

I've tried to use my Q2 in a send/return loop along with my ToneLab LE, but the output signal seems to be delayed(as in late). So when I pick a note, I can hear it just a little later.
Has anyone here tried this and maybe could give me a clue to what causes this??

Not sure what is happening, unless you had set the Q2 Global direct signal to mute. That should be done if the effects loop is a parallel one, otherwise it should be set to on.

Hi,

I use a Q2 in the effects loops on a Tonelab without any problems, sorry I can't help.

Cheers

Are you usng mono or stereo leads?

[Charlie Hall]

Did you make sure to match the output to the input, ie, if using L input, then use L output, same with R in and R out.

Hi Barry, Tony and Charlie,

Thank you for your replies. I am using mono cables. The general idea is to use the send/return connections on my ToneLab LE for the Q2, because in that way I'll be able to use the "insert" function to put the Q2 effects on some of my ToneLab patches. (Don't know if this makes any sense?.) Since you Barry, is a ToneLab user, maybe you could please tell me how you connect your stuff?

If the Q2 works properly when connected between the guitar and amp in the usual way, then it should work properly in an effects loop.
Regards,
Charlie

I'm working with a Pod XT Pro at the minute but I use the Tonelab in exactly the way as you describe, two cables send and return using the insert function.
