        I have two inserts configured in my H90. The first of them is formed by: Boss PS2 -> custom Rat + Russian Big Muff -> MA Count to Five -> CB Tonal Recall. I’m unable to adjust the latency as it’s explained in the manual and in the tutorial video.

        I activate only that insert, mix of the insert 50% and inverted polarity. Activate the Boss, the MA and the CB with the mix of each of them set to the minimum. Play my guitar, set the sample latency higher and that’s it. I can tell that in 0 samples it sounds much louder than in the rest of values, but after that all values sound pretty similar. There is not a point where the sound gets significantly quieter.

        When the insert is configured in series there is nothing wrong. But when in parallel I can hear something is off.

        Am I doing anything wrong? Can I make this work?

          The fact you have three digital pedals in series on one insert may be complicating the adjustment process. Have you tried adjusting the latency for just one pedal? Try, for example, to just use the Boss or CB in one loop. Are you able to make a functional adjustment?

          Something to keep in mind, every time you create a parallel path you’re also creating a copy of any dry signal at the split point. It’s generally the case that some effects in a parallel path will need to function in kill dry mode (or be set fully wet), so it’s just wet effect only, the way effects busses are applied in live sound or how effects busses work in a studio mix where you’re not mixing copies of dry signal together over and over. Any Program where you’re running these insert effects in parallel, I would try running some or all of them fully wet so the dry signal on the H90 path is not causing phasing issues with any dry signal going through the external path.

            Hey! Thanks a lot for the answer. I’ve doing some tests (all of this at insert mix 50% inverted):

            • No latency on the Boss. At sample 0 the volume is the lowest (but never is 0).
            • Same for the Ct5. However, when using the mode 2 or 3 and setting the mix of the pedal to 50% (with no loop recorded) and still in samples=0, the volume drops even more than when the mix is at 0%.
            • The problem comes with the CB it seems. At sample 0 the volume is very high. It then goes down. I found that at multiples of 130-140 samples the sound is more or less okay. It still sounds phasy though.

            I get what you mean with the parallel structure. I will take it into account, thanks!
