Using Mono and Stereo pedals together
There are several possible scenarios when using Mono and Stereo pedals together.
Splitting a mono signal within the ML10X and routing it to a stereo pedal input.
For any splitting or merging of signals in the ML10X, only Advanced mode can be used.
For example, if you have the Strymon Sunset (mono) and the Strymon Timeline (Stereo) device in your setup, and you want to split the mono signal from the Sunset and run it into the Timeline stereo L and R inputs, the setting will look like thisFew readersEngage/Bypass Loops in Advanced Mode
Overview
Consider this connection:
When A Tip is bypassed, the connection will look like this:
Pretty straightforward stuff. The complication arises when the signals split and merge.
Consider this slightly more complicated connection:

If you want to use a Mono Input / Stereo Output pedal with the ML10X, this article describes how to do it.
We will use the Chase Bliss Mood in this example, which has a Mono Input and a Stereo Output.
You will need to utilise an additional loop for the Stereo return. In this example, the cable connections are as such:
Guitar >ML10X Input Tip
ML10X Send A Tip >Mood Input
Mood Output Tip >ML10X Return A Tip
Mood Output Ring >ML10X Return A Ring

Yes, it is possible to use multiple ML10X with a MIDI controller. There are a total of 16 MIDI channels, so if you want to control each ML10X independently, then you can set each ML10X to an independent MIDI channel (i.e. ML10X-1 on Channel 1, and ML10X-2 on Channel 2), and then send the PC/CC messages on their respective channels to control each one independently.
If you are utilising the ML10X message type from our MIDI controllers, you can use the Device ID to differentiate each ML10X.

The ML10X can be run on voltages ranging from 9v to 18v. For most cases, running 9v is enough, which gives you a 4v peak to peak handling level. Running on 18v gives you 10v peak to peak. If you are not handling a very hot signal, and do not notice any clipping, then running on 9v is fine.Few readersUsing Advanced Mode in the Editor
In the ML10X v1.2 update, we have enhanced Advanced Mode to allow the engage/bypass of loops. In the editor, each loop will now show a Green or Red shade to indicate if it is Engaged (Green) or Bypassed (Red) when the Preset is loaded.
In the editor, to toggle each node between engage and bypass, you'll need to DOUBLE-CLICK on the node.Few readers
