The Octo setting on the Line 6 Verbzilla sounds amazing coming after the HOG. I like to use -1, orig, +1 and maybe some 5th for organ stuff, and the Octo adds in a nice string ambience that fills out the top end and because it is a reverb, it trails and blends the notes nicely.
I set up my rig last night, but I didn’t realize that I will need a way to mute the signal to the amp when the HOG is in bypass mode. I have a volume pedal, but I want it in my other signal path. Any suggestions for a cheap/easy way to cut the signal when I’m not using the HOG? I don’t want to get another volume pedal, does anyone make a mute pedal?
I have recently bought a HOG and have a question. I am playing through a Twin Reverb 65 reissue, so with the 2 channels on the amp, would it be possible/harmful to run the direct output and the output from the HOG each to the 2 channels of the amp? I figure that way I can have separate eq and volume controls, plus I can run effects through the direct signal without them interfering with HOG sounds. But I don’t want to do something that would hurt my amp.
