Hi users!
I did all the actions Laird described in his white paper. Everything works fine so far - thank you Laird, great job!
So if no pedal loop is activated - I have a crystal clear sound, even in the Insert Loop with highest gain settings.
I have connected to the analog loops the following pedals:
Loop1: simple boost pedal
Loop2: Ibanez TS7
Loop3: BOSS SD1
My problem:
When I activate any of loop1, 2, 3 hum is produced.
I bypassed the G-System Filter and "Pedal Loop" part by disconnecting the guitar cable from the G-System front input and connecting it into the preamp input.
All other cables were untouched. ´
Result: Sound is crytal clear and better than before because it sounds much more "open".
Then I switched one of the above pedals between guitar and preamp input. Result: No additional hum.
- Does the AD/DA unit "cut" sound?
- Has the analog loop unit inside the G-System a known ground loop problem or any other hum problem?
- Are there any solutions to the problems above?
Thank you for help!

In all cases BUT 0: Guitar volume 10:Full Hum; Guitar Volume 0: No Hum
The additional hum sound is (of cource) something like 50Hz hum.

It sounds like the noise is being picked up by your guitar pickups, not the G-system. Not much that can be done to help that with the G apart from trying the noise gate. The noise is being induced before the signal ever reaches the G, and the overdrive pedals are just amplifying it. If you haven't yet, good quality sheilding in your pick up cavity can help, or hum canceling pickups, and try to keep your guitar away from electronics like lights, computer monitors, amplifiers, ect.

Hi Guys,
I've been having trouble dialing in the front end of the G-system (Pre insert) Whether I use a buff puff or not, plugging into the input of the G-system lacks the punch and fullness of plugging directly into the preamp (CAE 3+SE). The buffer helped a little, messing with the gains didn't help much....
Any suggestions???
I anm stuck.

The first thing I would check is if the effects loop on you amp is on. Lots of amps have footswitchable effects loops. Try turning on effects in the second DSP block, like Mod or Delay. If you can't hear them, you've found your problem.

Checked that but those effects are working fine. In fact, I can mute the effects without any problem but continue to get a dry signal going through the front input of my amp. It seems the insert send on the G System isn't able to be muted.
