Just had an odd experience hooking up my newly wired up pedal board. Everything in front of amp plays nicely, but when I kick in the FX loop, my signal loses high end. After a while, activating the loop killed the signal altogether. Took everything apart, and as it turns out, no less than three pedals had loose jacks. Sorted that out, went through everything, made sure there were no cable braks, put it all back together aaaaand... signal comes through fine but still loses high end when FX loop is active. It's not a terrible issue per se, tone doesn't get horribly muffled or anything but still, there is a noticable difference.
I think maybe my NS2 (x-pattern) is to blame, but then again, I don't recall ever having these issues before (although I almost always keep the FX loop on and then just activate whatever pedal I need when i need it, so it is possible it's been there and I simply wasn't paying attention). And there are two buffered pedals in the loop.
Signal chain is as follows:
Wireless >> Wah >> Korg tuner >> Boss Noisegate >> Boss Flanger >> EHX OD >> Patchbay >> Amp in >> FX loop send >> Patchbay >> Boss Noisegate >> TC Delay >> Boss Reverb >> Patchbay >> FX loop return
