      Hello all,

      I’ve owned my H9 Max for a while now, and something has been bugging me about the output level.

      I am a violin player, and this is currently the series that I have in my set up:

      Violin (with Fishman V-200 Pickup) > Electro-Harmonix POG Micro (Octave pedal) > H9 Max > Tuner pedal > Radical SB-4 Active Piezo DI Box > Mixer

      When I activate my Octave pedal, the input into the H9 increases – so for any presets that I use with the octave pedal, I have to make a second preset with the output level reduced.

      Can anybody recommend anything to try and fix this?   Is there something I can buy to equalise the input to the H9 so that it’s the same regardless of if the octave pedal is activated?

      NB I am a very novice pedal user, so if it’s something really obvious – I apologise!

       

      Thanks in advance.

      Joe

      Hey…Don’t turn those knobs on the POG up so much and that should fix it…Also you might wanna put the tuner first or have a buffer split at the beginning that sends signal to the tuner so it’ll work well when those other pedals are engaged

        Thanks for the advice – I can certainly put the tuner first!

        I’ll try not having the POG knobs so high; I don’t use the octave up function at all, but the octave down is a full, as is the dry signal knob.  I use it when using the Diatonic algorithm – means I can play nice chords.  I’ll try to find the right levels on the POG so that it doesn’t blast into the H9.
