Please help before I throw my pedalboard out the window 🤣

[bassben1]

Hi, I'm a newbie. Sorry. Lol.

Trying to put together a pedal board and it's not working. I'm so frustrated 😠.  This is the equipment I've got:-

Schecter evil twin bass guitar 

Seymour duncan powerstage bass 700
Darkglass dg212n 
Hx stomp xl 
Boss chromatic tuner 
Ampeg opto comp 
Jam red muck 
Jam rattler 
Tc electronic sentry
Ckk electronic space station pro Reverb 
Flattley bass nirvana delay
Flattley bass valkyrie chorus 
Mooer gl 100 Looper

 

The problem I'm having is getting the pedals to work with the hx stomp xl. I can get the hx stomp to work with amp, but the pedals i can barely here at all. I've tried global settings, all combinations. Tried every pedal and cables individually(they all work).

I would like my tuner, Compressor, fuzz, distortion before the hx stomp. Has anyone got any ideas what I'm doing wrong.

Many thanks

Start with you bass straight into the amp and then add each pedal individually (one by one) until you recreate the fault.

If the problem is that you can't hear the external effects at all then it's probably going to be something silly.

 

Check that you are correctly connecting inputs and outputs for starters. Maybe take a photo of everything connected together so we can see what you're doing.

Can you post a photo of your setup? What do you mean when you say you cant hear the pedals? As in you can't hear a different whether they're turned on or off?

You've got 10 pedals. . . . . . ?

Intrigued to know what else you're using the stomp for! 🤔

 

Sounds like something is plugged in the wrong input? Could you post some photos of your setup to help diagnose?

Alternatively intrigued to know why you need any additional pedals.

There’s not really any point in further comments until you post a clear picture of the setup. It will be helpful to see a clear, top-down, image so that we can trace the cabling etc.

@bassben1 We need more info to help.

 

Can we have photos and a clear description of your signal path?

[LukeFRC]

Otherwise tell me which window to stand outside to catch …

Well, the HX fuzz models are not very good, and really the filers and synths aren't great either.
