RESOLVED: Output 3 / 4 No Audio Being Sent (User Error)

[Sleestak]

Greetings. I'm adding an outboard effect pedal (Digitech Freqout) to my AxeFX III. I'm attempting to use Out3 as the source for the pedal. I can see in Axe-Edit that signal is present in the Out3 block, but nothing is actually being sent to my pedal.

• The pedal works. When I plug directly into it, and run the output into the front input of the AxeFX, it functions normally.
• When I connect the AxeFX Out3 to the pedal input, and pedal output to AxeFX In3, there is no signal being sent to the pedal.
• I can verify that the AxeFX In3 works normally. If I plug my guitar directly into the pedal's input jack, it sends signal to the AxeFX In3 block.
• It's not the cable(s). I have tested and swapped the cables with other, known to be good cables.

So, what am I missing here? I've also tried to use Out4 / In4, with the same results. Why am I not getting a signal from Out3 and Out4?

is the Out 3 knob turned up on the front panel?

This.

Also, did you insert the blocks on the grid as they should?

Oh for pity sake. No, it wasn't. I'm so ashamed and I'm going to go give myself a swirlie.

Thanks all, for the quick suggestions! The Freqout is a big bonus in my live rig. I love it.

Did something similar this past weekend. Connected a EH B9 pedal using In4/Out4.
Ran stnadard T/S cables from Out4 to B9 input, B9 Output to In4. In Layout grid, make
sure block Out# is first in chain, then In#. I had to crank the B9 full up, then set Out4
volume (on front panel) full up. My mistake was placing In4 first in the chain, then Out4.
I had to reverse these (which may look wrong at first glance).

Then I set one scene with Out4 off, then next scene with Out4 on. One click and the effect
was active on one scene, off on the next. This worked for me.
