Pain in the ass
I've got a rack mount Voiceworks that wont play certain fx. I get a signal when I push bypass but on about half of the patches there is no signal output when the fx is engaged. Any ideas?
 
Are they the stereo effects and are you using the right cabling to do so?
 
now that you mention it, I think it is the stereo ones that are not working, just the voice altering ones. I've got it in my rack through the patch bay. Single input to stereo l/r outputs. Do they need special cabling?
 
I would think so, either that or you have the wrong type of patch bay.
 
I'll check but it is one of 14 in the rack and they all work. I don't understand how I can get a signal on bypass on an fx that wont work.
 
If your stereo L+R outs are not panned hard left and right and are being summed to mono then they will phase cancel out the effect.
 
They are hard panned. I'm thinking there is a setting on the unit I'm missing. Do you guys use this one?
 
If the effects worked before and now don't... I would try a factory reset... I think you're right, sounds like a wrong setting somewhere... I'd try to get back to square one (as long as you don't have a bunch of custom patches stored up).
 
No custom settings. The unit is somewhat new to me. The patches have never worked. It doesn't say anything about a factory reset in the manual. Any idea how to do that?
 
Resetting worked! I now can listen to all of the factory patches. Don't like hardly any of them........Let the tweaking begin.
