Re: 100% wet level is too low for some FX

I've flashed to 1.12 in case that was the issue. Which it wasn't. :)

The issue appears to specifically be if I feed an input to both the left and right rear inputs simultaneously. Which still isn't correct, most likely.

* Disconnect rear right input, works great
* Connect to front Hi-Z input, works great
* Leave rear right input connected but roll right input level off, I can hear the effects now but the direct sound is now panned hard left

I cannot recall if I've ever tried to use one of these as a stereo outboard effect before. But I expected to be able to feed it a stereo signal and have it process both channel simultaneously.

What seems to be the case is only SOME of the algorithms can successfully process a stereo input. Bass, Guitar definitely cannot, at least for me. But choose something like Pb33 Reverb + Reverb or any of the non-guitar/bass algorithms and they successfully process the stereo input.

This is possibly covered in the manual, though I couldn't quickly find where it mentioned this. In fact, all of the algorithm diagrams clearly show both L/R inputs feeding the first block, or feeding the stereo blocks as applicable.
