Line 6 M13 FX Loop, Factory Reset

Setup Details

FX Loop

You can insert the FX Loop anywhere in the signal path. Use Knob 5, LCD 3 to select your

insert point. Your choices are Pre All, Post FX 1, Post FX 2, Post FX 3, and Post All. The

following are a few routing examples to demonstrate the M13’s ﬂexibility. (Be aware that

multiple amps may cause ground hum - the common cure for this is a ground lift box):

Add an external FX unit to the M13: for example, run Vetta Comp in FX 1, U-Vibe

•

in FX2, then assign the FX Loop to Post FX 2 and feed an external distortion pedal.

That pedal’s output would return to feed FX 3 and 4 to add M13 Delay and Reverb.

Double routing: set the Loop to Post FX 1 and send an Octave Fuzz from FX1 out

•

to the front of a tube amp. Route the amp’s FX Send back into the M13 mono FX

Return. Now add M13 Filter, Flange and Delay FX and send the M13 mono Out to

your amp’s FX return. All the time-based FX will be post your tube amp’s preamp.

Wet/dry stereo: send a Comp or Dist model via FX Loop Send (Post FX 1) to a tube

•

amp for your dry sound. Add Panned Phaser, Ping Pong and Reverb in the M13 and

set all Mix controls to 100% wet. Now connect the M13 stereo outputs to 2 other

guitar amps. You’ll get wide, stereo FX left and right with dry guitar in the middle.
