Hello everyone.
I'm having a weird clipping issue with my "multi instrument" patch.
I use this method (check the picture attached) to use input 2 L and R and output 2 L and R for two more additional instruments.
It works fine as long all instruments are connected to the inputs and outputs. However, as soon as I unplug the input 2, I get the red out2 clip LED lighting. When checking the output values of output 2 in the utility->status menu, both left and right output 2 are clipping to the max. In addition to that, the CPU usage is only at a constant 88% in my patch, but still I get a CPU warning flashing as soon as this happens. I removed a Reverb in my patch (not listed on the picture); sometimes that removed the clipping issue, sometimes not (which is weird, as the reverb block has nothing to do with this issue at all, as it also happens when there is no reverb in the line!). It seems to be totally random what happens.
Also, this does ONLY happen when you unplug input 2 connections once after powering the Axe. If I reboot the Axe, with no input in input 2 at all, everything is fine. As soon as I plug a guitar cable into input 2 and unplug it again, the issue described above happens. FX-bypassing the lower left VOL block sometimes helps, sometimes not. It's totally weird, I couldn't find a pattern to why this happens.
It seems to be a bug with the AXE-2 that happens as soon as you unplug a cable of input 2 when the AXE2 is powered on.
I don't use AXE-EDIT, so I can not send you a patch. Maybe this description alone is enough to adress this bug. If not, I will get Axe-Edit and try to upload the patch.
