Hi all, new Terra user here. And I don’t have much experience with guitar pedals either and I’m not sure how people normally handle transitioning from a stereo signal out to a mono input.
What I have is a mono looper pedal (Blooper by Chase Bliss). Would it be best to use just a single TS cable out from either the L or R output into Blooper? I expect I would lose stereo information from Terra’s delay & reverb this way.
Or can I use a TRS Y-Split cable into the Blooper, with the two TS ends coming from Terra’s L/R outputs? I expect this would be functionally the same as using just one TS cable.
Or would I need to use something in between to sum the signals into mono before going into Blooper? Like a mixer, for example?
Cheers
Hey dawaim 🙂
See the manual on page 16, where it states that you can use either of the TS/TRS outputs. «Connecting only one jack to any of the two outputs activates a mono-output mode: the output’s stereo signal folds down into mono. The headphones output then also goes mono».
As far as I know, Blooper has only mono I/O, so it would be probably best to use a simple TS mono jack cable from Terra to Blooper, as the latter wouldn’t make any use of the TRS.
Hope that helped 🙂
Ah thank you! Yeah I totally missed that in the manual.. appreciate the help and the kindness. 🙂
