Frequently Asked Questions

g - What does the FX Mix/FX Loop Mix Knob do?

Marshall Amps :: Frequently Asked Questions
If your Marshall is equipped with a front panel FX Mix/FX Loop Mix knob (Fig. 4.1 & 4.2), this indicates that the amp has a Parallel or Series/Parallel effects loop. This means that you can adjust the amount of effect that is heard via this knob. If your amp does not have this knob, you have a Series Loop, in this instance you can adjust the effect level via the effects unit itself.

Why did you not put a knob on top to adjust the MIX?

Radial BigShot MIX Class-A effects mixer / buffer FAQ
We felt that most users will set and forget the mix and would prefer to set the precise mix level without worrying that it gets accidentally nudged. A guitar pick is used to make adjustments.

Is the FX loop before or after the distortion stage?

Tonebone Trimode tube distortion - Frequently Asked Question...
The effects loop works in conjunction with the solo channel. Therefore, an effect like a delay will only go on when the solo channel is activated. When in true-bypass, the pedals in the effects loop and the distortion will be out of the signal path.

What is FX?

What is acceleration? What does "g" stand for?

California Geological Survey - Frequently Asked Questions
Acceleration, in physics, corresponds to the force applied to something that causes it to change its position or speed. It is the force you feel when a car accelerates from a stop sign, pushing you back into the car seat (it's a horizontal force). Similarly, when an elevator starts moving, you feel more weight on your legs (it's a vertical force). When a roller coaster car makes a hairpin turn, the acceleration may push you to the side, or up or down.

Why does the Karaoke Mix Pro (CD+G duplicator) only use Plextor Premium drives?

How does the alternative loop syntax, e.g. while {...} {...} work?

Z-Shell Frequently-Asked Questions
Zsh provides an alternative to the traditional sh-like forms with do, while TEST; do COMMANDS; done allowing you to have the COMMANDS delimited with some other command structure, often {...}. The rules are quite complicated and in most scripts it is probably safer --- and certainly more compatible --- to stick with the sh-like rules. If you are wondering, the following is a rough guide. To make it work you must make sure the TEST itself is clearly delimited.

Can I use the MIX in between my amp’s send and return loop on the back of the head?

Radial BigShot MIX Class-A effects mixer / buffer FAQ
Yes! Just keep in mind that this should be a guitar level send and return which most amps will be equipped with. Check the amp’s owner’s manual to be sure.

Can I mix and match loops from different loop sets on a disc?

Beta Monkey Music Drum Loops: Frequently Asked Questions
The problem with a lot of loop discs is the fact that so many of the loops on a particular disc do NOT work together. In most cases it is because you have a random assortment of drum sounds, varying from one loop set to another. We offer several discs that are UNIFIED collections of loops. By that, we mean the entire disc features one single drum sound (all loops are taken from the same kit, same room, same recording session).

Why doesn't the Karaoke Mix Pro (CD+G duplicator) have a reader drive?

Vinpower Digital Inc. - FAQ
The CD+G formatted discs is a very unique format. Unlike standard CD's, CD+G takes the images/graphics, (which are embedded within the audio track sub-channels), to allow the discs to show the song lyrics while playing the music. Standard CD-ROM or CD-RW drives will not be able to accurately detect those hidden images and distort your copies. In order to make an exact back-up copy of your produced CD+G disc, you need to make copies from a hard drive.

f - What does the Loop Level Switch do?

Marshall Amps :: Frequently Asked Questions
Some Marshall amplifiers are equipped with a Loop Level switch located on the rear panel (Fig. 3.1); normally right next to the Effects Loop jacks. This switch provides a +4dB or -10dB (db = decibel) compensation for the various effects that can be run through the loop. The general suggestion is that the -10db setting should be used for stomp box type effects. The +4dB setting should be used for rack/floor processors.

How well does a loop made of coax work?

Magnetic Loop FAQ
When using coax, either the ground braid or the center conductor can be used. Unless you using one inch hardline the diameter of the braid is simply too small for high efficiency. Have I tried it on RG-8U and other types of coax? Yes. Does it work well? In my opinion the answer is no. One inch or even half inch copper pipe will work much much better. I would not recommend this strategy at all since every experiment of this type yielded poorly performing loops.
