Hi guys,
I'm noticing that when I use the Chorus side of my H2O V3 with my Traynor YCS-50 head that I lose some output and noticeable high end.
I've encountered this before when there have been other pedals with lesser quality buffers and moving or removing the pedal helped. But currently, all other pedals in the rig are True Bypass or are other TrueTone/Visual Sound products (and therefore have the same buffer as the H2O).
I've ruled out the possibility of there being a buffer in the Joyo PXL Pro switcher as I've been using it for almost a year and without issues.
The most recent major change in my rig is the amp. The H2O is being routed through the TCS-50's Series Effects loop. Can anyone with experience with this amp confirm if that's the issue? I'm planning to just send the effects straight to the front of the amp to see if that changes anything. Once I get the cables and switches needed to use the Parallel loop, I plan to try the chorus there too and see if it helps as I've read that parallel loops are the better option for modulation effects. (Or, I guess for testing purposes I can use my channel switching cables attached to the Joyo switcher).
A workaround I just though Of is that I can put an EQ pedal in the loop the chorus is connected to on the switcher and adjust the high end until there is no distinguishable change in the basic tone when the chorus is used. Hopefully I don't need to resort to this, but there doesn't seem to be any other explanation besides the amp's series loop.
