Is it me or when you use both outs to go stereo out of the AD-9, does the volume seem to drop? I notice that with it off I'm running both amps and it's pretty loud, then I turn on the AD-9 (keeley modded) and for an instant amp 1 cuts off while the dry signal comes out of Amp 2 and then Amp 1 comes back on to sound out the echos while amp 2 cuts off. This all happens in a second. So basically I'm jamming along full volume (both amps), then I kick in my delay to get some imaging and go for a big lead with distortion and half of my rig is gone. Does anybody like using that 2nd dry out for stereo? I think I'm going to just run it mono so both amps are driven during solos. Maybe I'm supposed to put a 2nd delay pedal on the board for imaging apps... Thoughts?
