@@GaryWrightMusic I am confused about patch cables. One the Nano Cortex it uses TRS cables and I am not sure about what the Fractal VP4 uses. I know it's in mono so what patch cables did you use ? Thanks Kevin
So I have a question. I use 4 cable with a GT1000, and it does fine, I guess. What would the difference be if I do 3 cable? Guitar to GT input, GT left output into amp input. Send and return from GT into the amps send and return. The fx chain is set up so that filters and distortion is sent to the amp input, and the modulation/delays are still going through the loop. With that, I can still send a digital preamp from the GT into the loop, bypassing the amp front end to use the amps power amp, and disabled anything going into the amps preamp. I understand that the amp input, and return to the GT are different in 4 cable, but what is the practical difference?
There really isn't much of a difference in this case, since both your amp and gt1000 both have an effects loop. The 4 cable method is really just attempting to make a closed loop in a scenario where the effects loop exists only on the amp (in most cases).
Thanks for your reply. I’ve actually been successful using the QC’s 2 FX Loops with the VP4 and gotten a stereo signal but the cabling is different. Doing it this way I get the benefits of the VP4’s effects but you can only put the QC’s FX Loop block before the or after the amp so I’m thinking you can’t really take advantage of pre-fx/post-fx. Another words, I don’t think you can separate your drive/compressor effects before the amp and your modulation effects after the amp. Am I wrong about this. Thanks again!
Can you do a show of your pedalboard. I want to use the Temple Audio Board. Thank you for all you do for the Nano Cortex !!!!!
Let me see what I can do! 🙏🏻

Thank for the Diagram !!! That helps a lot !!!!! Can you still use the Headphone jack ?
Of course! Using the VP4 headphone port will give you the final results at the end of the loop.
There isn’t a headphone jack on the vp4
@@stuartglenn3719 There is one on The Nano Cortex.
If you used the 4CM with the VP4 and a Quad Cortex would it be possible to get a stereo signal?
Yes! You don't even need the 4cm with the Quad Cortex, given the fact you have 2 fx loops.
