      Hi there,

      I have a quesiton about routing my H90 through the two effects loops on a Jad Freer CAPO preamp. This preamp has two effects loops – one pre-preamp and one post-preamp. I would like to route the H90 so that I can run side A through the pre loop and B through the post loop, however I would like to keep the H90 itself out of the instrument signal path. E.g. instrument into preamp with h90 running into the two effects loops as described above. I understand the four cable method, but I’m not sure if that would require me to put the ‘pre’ side of the h90 in the input signal path (bass-h90-preamp) instead of putting it in the pre-preamp loop.

      Is it also possible (with the above or similar routing) to have some presets with both A & B going through one path and other presets with A & B split? Again, apologies if this is obvious, but any help would be great.

      Any advice would be much appreciated – bass player here with limited knowledge of specialist routing!!

      Many thanks!

      Just as a follow up, I think I’ve answered my own questions via the various Eventide resources. But if anyone has a reason why the answer to the above would be ‘no’, please let me know, as I’m 99% sure I can do the above with no problems.

      Thanks!

      Hello sascrob,

      My recommendation is to use the H90 in Dual Routing Mode. Configured this way, the H90 acts as two independent stereo (or mono) effects processors where Path 1 (I/O 1) can be used for your Pre loop and Path 2 (I/O 3) can be used for your B loop. On a program basis, you can put two effects in pre or two effects in post or one on each path. Be mindful of operating levels as most amp loops function at line level, but consult your amp’s manual and configure the operating levels on the H90 I/O accordingly. I recommend watching this video for a deeper understanding: https://youtu.be/0G_WtfUatSc?t=195&si=RctOC_fayhgq6w1p

      Thanks for the reply. That is what I was thinking, but I managed to confuse myself… Many thanks for the help!
