I'm fully prepared to be called a dumb ass here on this one, but here goes......
Working on my setup with my AX8 I've come across a weird problem. 2 of my guitars have SD Passive pickups in them and they work great. TRS cable from guitar, to EV1 Expression Pedal for Volume control, and then into the Instrument input on the AX8.
Same exact set up with 2 of my guitars that have EMG Active pickups in them and the guitar input decreases by about 95%.
Yes I changed batteries in these guitars, and yes these guitars work perfectly through a regular TS cable and my other true amp/cab set up.
While I am still in the beginning stages of learning this AX8 I am starting to think the TRS cable is only for the input to the AX8. Does anyone wanna throw a technical explanation at me as to why the TRS side doesn't work with my Active pickup guitars?
I'm going to throw a regular TS cable into the mix today and hopefully fix it, but it was just a situation I found interesting and frustrating....
