Greetings,
With my AX8 one day away from arrival, I've been scouring the manual and trying to determine the best way to migrate my current live setup where I primarily play a Godin xtSA (magnetic pickup/piezo pickup/MIDI) and think it would be great if I were able to route my piezo connection through the AX8 via its "IN 2 [FX RTN]" input. I think I get the basic gist of having to add the FXL block to patches where I want the piezo to come through, but I have a few questions around this type of setup:
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot and take care,
Alan

I think I get the basic gist of having to add the FXL block to patches where I want the piezo to come through, but I have a few questions around this type of setup:
- Since the piezo output is mono, does it matter which side (left or right) of the "IN 2 [FX RTN]" input I connect to?
- In either case, is there a way I can ensure I'm only tapping the side I'm using for this piezo input (perhaps in the FXL settings) to minimize noise from the unused input?
- If I do not add an FXL block to a patch, is it safe to assume that any piezo signal received on the AX8's IN 2 input will not bleed through in any manner?
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot and take care,
Alan
