When vintage combo amps meet the the powerful pro-
cessing world of the 2112, you just cannot help but get a
great sound. More often than not, guitarists are hesitant
to accept state of the art in signal processing, because
they feel that they have to betray their beloved and trust-
worthy combo amps.With the 2112, this just simply is
not the case. Using a set-up similar to the one shown
above will give you the chance to optimize the potential
of both the 2112 and the combo amplifiers.
The best signal route for a combination such as this one,
is to first run out of the guitar output into the input jack
of the 2112.Then, if you prefer to use an additional effect
unit in the signal path, you can utilize the programmable
mono fx loop of the 2112. In doing this, you will want to
run from the fx send of the 2112 into the selected effect
unit. From the chosen effect unit, run out of either its
output or Fx send back into the fx return of the 2112.
From the 2112, you will now want run out of both the
left and right outputs of the 2112 into the input jacks of
both Combo Amps.
You will be able to achieve lush, smooth stereo effects,
while retaining the great amp tones of both the 2112 and
the Combo Amps. So, in sense, you can have your tweed
cake and eat it too.
As usual, make sure that all of the connections are good
and solid when making the connections. It is also a good
idea to make sure that the signal levels going from one
unit to the other are even. Meaning that the output level
going into the input of the receiving unit is not set so
high that it distorts (or clips) the input section. Always
remember that the better your rig sounds clean, the bet-
ter your 2112 will sound.
