I had been interested in setting up a stereo rig but ultimately decided it wasn't worth it. The I struck a great deal on a Mark IV giving me two great amps (Roadster, Mark IV) that I would like to try putting together a stereo setup. I'm not going for a wet/dry/wet setup but rather two amps to run stereo effects between and create spatialization. I have tried a few things but I'm running into the problem of the Mark IV's Master Volumes for each channel also act as effect send levels. Anyways, the result was I would turn up a channel on my Roadster and it would affect the Mark IV! Basically, everything was working...but not working in what could be considered a normal way.
The main stereo effect I want to run between both amps is my Eventide TimFactor. How would you guys go about setting this up? Hasn't really worked so I would like to hear what you would do if you had both amps, a TimeFactor, all the cables you would need, and a guitar? I'm not opposed to Slaving one of the amps but based off how complicated these two amps are, that may be easier said than done.
On one of my first attempts I split the guitar signal and went straight into both amps. Then I connected the TimeFactor to both FX loops. Everything sounded fine, but the amp controls didn't behave as expected, like turning up the Roadster Channel Volume and having the Mark IV get significant louder.
I have all the parts, I just need some help putting them together! Any advice you might have would be greatly appreciated!
