Re: Using a extern Preamp in FX of Digitech 2101

Andi,

What you are doing using the Midi-looper can be done the way I 
suggested to you in my previous email. No extra gear needed. That I 
think is the beauty of the way the 2101 FX loop is designed and that 
some other renowned guitar mFXs incredibly do not have (e.g. G-
Force). 

Another suggestion: There is no need to split your pre-amp signal 
using a Y-adapter. If you want to get a stereo signal from the 2101, 
the only thing you have to do is program your algo appropriately. In 
other words, if you want to have a stereo sound you need some FXs 
that are to generate some stereo effect. For instance, a ping-pong 
delay, pitch-shifter with its source and shifted signal panned 
separately across the stereo field, etc.

For that, you just need a MONO source from the guitar. Feed that to 
the delay input for instance, and use a 2x2 mixer (or 3x2 if you 
wanted some "raw" signal mixed along) to handle the stereo output of 
the delay and so on with any other FX you might want to use. Most of 
these FXs are to get a mono input and they produce a stereo out.

Hope this helps, let me kno if there is anything unclear.

Gus.
