Backstage: Why You Need to Use the 4 Cable Method 

Thanks!

Thanks for the kind words! Yes, the 4X Pro V2 requires 9V power just like a pedal.

The 4X MOD Pro V2 is intended for use with a mono setup with FX loop. You could also use it for a setup with mono in, stereo out (but not with FX loop). There’s so many options for routing your signal we’d need to cover the plethora of stereo options in a different video.

In general I'd put compressors, pitch shifters, boosts, and drives into the front of the amp. Modulations (chorus, tremolo, phaser, etc), delays, and reverbs go in the effects loop. This is the "standard and safe" approach, but have fun experimenting! Eddie Van Halen broke rules putting his phaser in front of his cranked Marshall and nobody complained.

In a nutshell: the 4X Pro has two inputs and two outputs that you can use however you need. You’ll just need to disable the AUTO LOOP functionality.

I'd recommend you contact Musifacts (our European distributor) about locating a store with stock near your. www.musifacts.eu

There are 2 variations of the Hi5. The Hi5 MOD comes with an AC MOD and a power cable to plug into the wall outlet. The Hi5L comes with Link cables required to link from the previous Hi5 to the next. Please refer to this post that shows what comes with each variation: instagram.com/p/CJb3sxhB-77/ Unfortunately, we're facing some delays surrounding our AC MOD. I can't provide an accurate ETA at this time as to when we'll have more. They're definitely still a product we produce, but will be on pause for a season. Please keep posted to our website and social media. In the meantime, using something like this Strymon unit (www.strymon.net/product/ps-124-replacement-power-adapter-for-ojai-and-ojai-r30/) in conjunction with an IEC MOD would work well to power the Hi5. You could use a Medium Pedal Plate to mount the power brick underneath. Please email us if you have any further questions: sales@templeaudio.com

We offer a “Punched Plate” that lets you mount any D-style connector into the side of your Templeboard. We also make a 5-pin MIDI connector so you could mount 3 MIDI connectors in one MOD slot with a Mini Module Punched Plate.

Yes, the AUTO LOOP feature on the 4XMOD Pro V2 is for the exact situation you just described!: www.templeaudio.com/4x-mod-pro-v2

I'll check this out thank you, Dan 😃

We'll definitely be providing more details/videos on the AMP MOD in the coming months. Keep posted to our social media and www.templeaudio.com!

The 4X Pro could work for that, yes. You may also want to check out the DI MOD Pro.

Sorry to hear that! Please email us and we’ll figure out a solution asap: sales@templeaudio.com

You're not mussing anything and it should work great. You'll need to make sure you have a TRS cable on both sides of the MOD (ie. if one of the cables is TS then it won't work). If it's still not working, then please send us an email and we'll be happy to further troubleshoot: sales@templeaudio.com

No, it doesn't matter if they're analog or digital. You can play around with putting any pedals in the effects loop. There's no "right" way.

Your Tone-X is effectively your “amp,” so anything you want before your amp goes to the Tone-X’s input. Anything you would want in an amp’s effects loop would be after the Tone-X in the chain. This assumes you’re not using a physical amp, though.

What @themikepadua said. If you’re wanting to use the ToneX with other effects then pedals “before the amp” go in front of the ToneX and the ones you want “in the effects loop” would go after the ToneX. If the ToneX had FX loop send/returns like some other modelers then you’d have a few more connection options, but as far as I can tell this would be the best way to do it.

The 4X MOD Pro V2 is intended for mono but the 4X (non-Pro) will allow you to pass TRS signal through and you could use it for a stereo setup.

Or if you’re a drummer!

Or if you have half a brain

FX loops explained and showing how the products we make could help streamline that setup. Of course we hope artists want to buy our products because it’s the best solution for their needs!

@@templeboards and there it is, "our product is the best solution" calm it down there Paul Reed Smith. There are probably 500 or so FX Loop explained videos, did not need another. This is a straight up click bait Ad

We’re confident in our products. That doesn’t necessarily mean our creations are going to be THE best solutions for absolutely every use case, period. I’m simply saying that this compact solution may be the best option for someone’s pedalboard setup. If this video helps someone understand signal chain order and fx loops then that’s great… even if they don’t buy something. We genuinely love music and helping others pursue their best performance.

Fair. If you set things up right, all you’d need is that short cable. 👍

Could you please elaborate? We will gladly take the feedback.

To each their own! Some people prefer a relatively clean amp with all pedals before it and that’s fine too.
