Looper Question - Did Anything Change? - Solved - My Bad

[Genghis]

Hi all,

Running a 5150 III 50 watt in 4-cable method and I thought at one point I had things set up so that I could record using the looper using a scene for my rhythm channel, playback the scene, then select a scene for my lead channel to play lead over. I thought it would continue playing what was recorded with the sound of my rhythm channel, and I could play lead with the scene for my lead channel. I thought that's what it would do if I had it on Post Out, but now when I switch scenes, the prerecorded loop changes tone as well. I have also tried the other options for looper placement and nothing behaves like I thought it used to.

Am I wrong in what I remember, or am I doing something wrong? I don't use the looper often, so it could just be me.

Where are you changing the looper position; what menu? What firmware are you on?

Latest firmware, 3.60, and under Global Settings.

Latest firmware, 3.60, and under Global Settings.

In each Preset, the Looper also needs to be set to global, since you can override that per preset. Check the Looper setting in the Preset.

Yes, just double-checked that and it is set to use Global. The behavior changes when I switch to the pre options, but neither of those give me what I'm looking for. Both Post options seem to give me the same result, and I was thinking that one of them worked previously. Thanks for replying Chris.

can you upload a preset please? i can't check it till later tonight, but maybe someone else can look.

 

[Genghis]

Will do after work. I had a few minutes to check settings when I was on lunch break, but can't fire things up to do that for about 3 hours. Thanks Chris.

Interesting... I have tried to upload the file using different naming conventions... and it fails as a SYSX file or even when I zip it. What is the trick for uploading files here? I see other posts with it.

Oh man, scuze me while I wipe the eff off my face. It was me.

I forgot that last night when I was playing I had the amp loaded down and going through my Torpedo C.A.B. and every time I change channels on that it changes to a different cab... so that is what was changing the tone and making it louder and a bit more mid-heavy (very similar to my tonal change when I kick over to my solo channel, but not exactly the same).

Sorry for the fuss guys.
