I have a Suhr Iso Line Out box and two Yamaha D1500 mono delays.

Can I run the line out of the Suhr Iso Box into a MXR stereo chorus
pedal and then split the signal to the two Yamaha delays?

Or do I need something like the Suhr Mini mix?

I only have one mono cab right now so I have to get
another extension cab to try it out.

Has anyone tried something like this?

Please, let me know.

Thanks,

Craig

Yes...
 
hard to answer because your list of what you have is unclear but-

assuming you have the iso box inserted between amp head and dry cab properly, and are using the iso to provide a feed for your wet signal path,

dial in your dry cab volume first, set clean, the way you like it,

you take the line out from iso into your mxr chorus, which now creates your "wet" stereo split, in parallel/independent of your dry cab path. (i'd keep the wet rig to just the chorus at first, without additional delay units, to simply verify things are working, without too much noise or ground hum, and making sure you are not overdriving the chorus input with too high an iso box output level )

the outputs of your chorus should feed a separate stereo power amp
(or two amp heads, preferably into their fx loop RETURNS for clean power, but i have used main guitar inputs on amps set clean, OR two powered L/R speakers ala Tech 21 power engines)

the stereo power amp outputs (or amp heads) feed two individual LEFT and RIGHT speaker cabs


start with wet amp volumes low, then blend in the wet stereo chorus volumes to taste, listening for any clipping. this is why i suggest starting with a clean tone, because it's easier to hear clipping that way.

if using two amp heads/fx loop returns, sometimes the only volume control you have is the iso box level, or if the effect has an output level control

if all seems ok, add one delay to one side of the wet signal, after the chorus, and start with a low delay time and input level and slowly increase time and volume. if all is good, add second delay to other side. much better for troubleshooting than hooking all up at once and hoping for the best.

Great thanks,

Here's a video of the setup so far:



I am running a speaker out of an EVH 5150 III 50 watt head
into the Suhr Iso Box.

To the MXR Black Label Chorus then to the two Yamaha delays.

I'll be using a Art SLA 1 to power the two wet cabs.

I have the EVH 4x12 for the dry cab.

I find the Mesa Rectifier 2x12 cab I am using for the wet
cab sounds a lot brighter.

I am not sure if it is the Vintage 30's or the Art Sla 1.

I might trade the Mesa 2x12 for a stereo Mesa Stiletto 4x12
or go with two EVH 1x12's.

Hard to find any EVH 1x12's at the moment though.

Thanks again.
 
Does anyone find Celestion Vintage 30's a little
bright sounding with an EVH 5150 III?

Or is it the Art SLA 1 powering the wet cab?

V30s are bright with most amps!!! I cannot speak for the EVH 5150 III, since i do not have one nor even played through one!!! Bogner XTC and Shivas work well with V30s in my experience.
 
My Mesa Mk III sounds thicker and bassier through my bog cab and I have to add more high and less bass. Possibly has a lot to do with cabs?
 
Can't say I've ever found vintage 30's bright. Nice set up BTW.
