Take a look at the layout for the following preset (full details here: http://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/the-last-shimmer-preset-i-promise.109345/)
There are a variety of ways to have either the top branch or the bottom branch active (I did it by bypassing the Cab (bypass type set to mute) or bypassing the Vol block right under the cab (bypass type set to mute)). But what would I do if I wanted to be able to crossfade between the two paths using an expression pedal?
I'm already using both Vol blocks. So it seems like the best approach would be to use 2 filter blocks (assuming I have enough CPU to do so) and set them to the same expression pedal with opposite slopes)? Would there be an easier way to do this on the rack units? I know they have a Mixer block, but I never used it on my Axe2 and don't really know how it works.
This might be kind of useless for this specific preset, but I was thinking it might come in handy with a guitar with piezo and magnetic outputs (instead of using the controls on the guitar).
