My suggestion centers around setting up the MPX1 so that it's output is only the effected wet signal. Any dry output is going to cause phase problems. This is the same way you set a plugin and a send, mixed 100% wet. Howard

(the only modification I had to made was in the setup of the Voice-one, (no delay)) Best regards Cyril Blanc France If you want to be sure I read your answer leave my name in it !
