Anyone using a Strymon Timeline with AX8?

[JJ-LP]

What is the best way to connect and use a Strymon Timeline with an AX8 if I wanted to? How would I put it after the amp and cab in the AX8 Editor?

I ran mine in the effects loop, stereo. You have to watch the send level from the AX8 so that you don't clip the input of the Timeline. It's a bit of a pain, actually.

Finally took mine off the board because it was kind of limiting. The AX8 delays are fantastic, and I wasn't using it for anything beyond what they can do. With the Plex Shift delay in the AX8, I find I have no need for the Timeline anymore.

You'd typically put it where any delay would be in AX8Edit, which is next to last - right before reverb.

Put it in the effects loop and put the block wherever you think it sounds best.

Sometimes delay into the amp is what you want, sometimes you want the delay after the amp, both can sound good, yet different

With the Ax8 you have freedom to move it around which is really cool

Fx loop in stereo let's you get the most out of it IMO.

That's how I ran it for this comparison.
