Re: Same question asked YET AGAIN.. can someone help me in MY situation?



I can only turn my VORTEX input to maybe 9 o'clock because the input is so sensitive.  And that is after a compressor/limiter and two line level delays.  
 
Pity too.  The VORTEX sounds soooooo good when it gets a full signal.  But the digital clipping sucks when the signal is a little too hot.

Hi,

can anyone help with the distortion/impedance question?

Huh? I've used Vortexes for quite a while. And Yes, while I do
have to turn down the input on the thing (to about half) so
it's not over-driven, I seldom have any trouble with distortion.
I run the thing right after my multi-effect/preamp fed by
the former's direct output. Could there be something wrong
with your specific Vortex? Or . . . have I just been lucky?
I own two and run analog guitar sounds through one and
guitar synth sounds through the other.

Best regards,

In the mid-18th century, the Maillardet brothers created an
astonishing robot writer-draftsman that could write poetry
and do amazing drawings of ships and buildings. Around the
same time, Jacques de Vaucanson created his infamous
mechanical defecating duck, which could eat, digest and
all the rest. Furthermore, he also created a flute-playing
musician android, which offered 12 tunes it could play
to quite pleasing effect.
