Hi folks,
as I own a nice Eventide hardware fx unit I wanted to use it in the loops of my Diezel amps.
Unfortunately I cannot use it in the parallel fx loop as the ADDA conversion will feed the effected signal back to the amps mixing stage with some latency. That, as most of you may know, will result in a sort of combfiltering effect that makes this way of using the fx unit pretty much useless.
On the other hand one needs to use sample rates over 48khz in the serial loop as the degradation of the signal after the conversion will be audible quite clearly which in turn limits the number and type of presets the unit can handle at these rates. Nevertheless the overall sound is of course better as in the parallel fx loop but still different in harmonics and dynamics.
So my question is if anyone of you has found a smart solution to have a digital fx in the parallel loop of a tube amp without said artifacts / problems?
Thanks a lot.
