![]() but that project is at a very embryonic stage. ![]() The real fun will come when I get my standalone reverb-trem unit on line. But then again, until a couple weeks ago I never had an amp this good either I will say that my entry level Zoom multieffects unit has never sounded so good. Between notes the reverb and delay will fill in the gaps. While playing, you get pretty much unaffected amp sound. If you set it correctly, you’ll get automatic ducking from the amp compression. I haven't tried an A-B comparison test yet. Relay and reverb before a cranked plexi works pretty well as long as the mix is quite low. So far quite pleased with this installation. I'm pretty sure that's correct and not just an error on my part, because I remember this same issue mentioned in an add-on reverb thread over on the Trinity forum and it does make sense looking at the schematic. If you install the effects loop where suggested by Trinity, it only works on Channel 2. I'm not sure why they did it this way but I figured there might be a reason for it and used the wire they sent. This made the wire a bit bulky and hard to work with. Tube amps deal with very high, dangerous voltages, so please have a qualified technician. It was fairly easy to install, but I do have a good deal of experience with electronics, soldering, etc. I installed this loop in my 1967 JTM50 clone/replica amplifier. Installing a Zero Loss effects Loop in a HiWatt DR103 by roknroll Tue 3:57 pm Here are some images showing the installation of a Zero Loss Effects Loop in a HiWatt DR103. I did have a "what the heck is going on" moment until I realized I had forgotten to put a needed jumper wire across two terminals of the bypass switch.įor some reason Metropolous sends you two-conductor shielded wire, and you twist the conductors together to use them as one.

I have one in my JMP 50 clone and it is outstanding. Instead of a wire lead, I just used the coupling resistor to bridge from the can cap source to the terminal strip. The Zero Loss loop at Metro is excellent tone wise, easy to install and pretty cheap. There was a conveniently located empty spot in the chassis, so I put in an extra terminal strip (it's a big cap and I didn't want it just hanging in the air). That meant a spiky power source, so smart people suggested I should use an additional 47uF filtering cap on the zero loss power supply line. The only place I could tap "upstream" of the VRM was before the standby switch, off the first filtering cap (on a TC15 that is the first half of a can capacitor). Since I built my amp with Trinity's optional VRM - an attenuator that works by decreasing B+ - it would often be getting power supply well below the recommended voltage range. So shortly after completing my first amp build - Trinity TC-15 - I ordered a Metropolous Zero Loss Effects Loop. My next rookie amp builder project is a standalone reverb, and it looked to be easier to build one that would go in an effects loop rather than in front of the amp.
