Title: F-1X into Hartke HA3500 Head
Post by: blitzen on September 19, 2008, 09:55:08 PM

Just got the F-1X.  I am trying to bypass the preamp on the Hartke and use the Alembic while still using the parametric EQ.  Is this possible?
Thanks in advance.

If you run the output of the F-1X into the effects return jack on the Hartke, you should be in business.  You'll control the input gain on the F-1X, and the overall output level using the master knob on the Hartke.  
 
According to the block diagram in the Hartke manual on the Samsontech website, you will also still be able to use the contour controls and the graphic EQ on the Hartke head as well.
