Are you saying that you can turn the volume knob of the Egnater all the way to zero (fully CCW), so that strumming the guitar results in no sound at all from the Egnater, and yet at the same time you still hear the guitar sound through the second amp at the same level as it was before turning down the Egnater? And are you also saying that when you turn up the volume on the Egnater, the second amp does not get louder? Is the Egnater loop switched on? The Egnater loop has to be switched on.
YES! Exactly! There is not a loop switch on the Egnater, I know the Effects loop is working because i used it before the 2nd amp. I have always used the nova through the effects loop and it works fine, I'm just bringing in this 2nd amp in the chain. The Raven amp seems to be at some sort of set volume even when the Nova is on 0. So say My Egnater is at level 5 and the Nova is at 0 for R and L outs .... The raven is the 2nd amp and is crazy loud! I go into the Nova and turn down the R level to like -45 and then they are about equal volume .... Then.... If i turn the Egnater up or down, the level does not change on the Raven amp. I then have to to into the Nova again and mess with the -45 R to bring it up or down to level out the 2 amps. There is no loop switch on the Egnater.[/b][/color]
If you have sound from the second amp with the Egnater volume knob turned all the way down, then the level of output from the Nova to the second amp is set too high. I can turn up the output level on my POD very loud, and there is some bleed through from the Egnater with volume knob at zero, but no way I can use it at that level, way too hot when the Egnater volume is turned up. From what you posted, the "volume" on the Nova can be used to get a balance between the two amps. Start with the Egnater at a low volume, adjust the Nova to get the same volume on the second amp. Then, the Egnater volume knob should act as a master volume.
That's what everyone says but when I get the volumes identical, as soon as I change the Egnater volume, the Raven never changes unless I change the R out in the Nova.[/b]
In my setup (for now) which is the same type of setup as yours, Twkr 40 and HRDlx run from a POD (instead of a Nova) with left and right outputs, the Egnater volume knob controls the loudness of both amps at the same time. I don't have (or can't find) any adjustment on the POD to change the level of its L and R outputs independently, so the HRDlx is a little louder than the Twkr. As you posted, your Nova has independent level for its outputs, so you should have some balance control.
Do you think there is some sort of setting in the Nova that I need to adjust than the normal setting? I have tried PEDAL, each volume, etc... Still the same thing...
Maybe I am the one that's missing something here? I really would like to have some Egnater schematics
Maybe Bruce or Ian has some idea of what the problem is. The only other thing that I can think of is that the Renegade has some unique type of loop in which the "Send" is taken off before the volume and other controls?
Its possible, but it appears no one else really seems to have this issue, the only think I can think of that i don't know if i have tried is just switching the right and left output cables... I don't think that will matter, but I have tried so many setups, I forget what I have tried so far ... I guess its worth a shot[/b]
