2 parallel ML10x's for 10 stereo loops?

Morningstar Gear ML10X

Hi @jrnguyen ! Your setup inspired me so much that I wanna do the same! I have complex setup using hybrid 8 string guitar, that runs two outputs, one for the bass side and one for the guitar.

I wanna be able to use same effects on both sides m, depending on patch (for example Meris enzo on bass for mono synth sound or use it as pad on guitar side, while having dry bass sound).

So reordering and advanced mode is a must. I have way to many pedals though, currently 5 stereo pedals and 8 mono pedals.

This is the only drawback from your solution in my case: If i run two parallel, can I still use mono loops? Of course it would always be infront of the stereo ones or running parralell but I would need to reorder them. Lets say:
Input 1 ->oc2(mono)->meris enzo(stereo)-output L&R
and parallel:
Input 2 → Comp-Drive-strymons -output L&R

If i understand correctly, that means that I will always send mono pedals to one side (L or R) of stereo pedals, not being able to send it to both inputs right? Not sure if or how would this end up working?

Do you have any experience combining mono pedals with stereo in this setup?

Thanks a lot, you really inspired me. This was only possible in axe fx until now, but so many of the wonderful weird pedals are keeping me spending money on pedals.

Since you have 5 stereo and 8 mono, why not run one ML10x into the other? The first would be hooked up with all your mono pedals, and the second your stereo pedals.

L on first ML10x would be guitar. R would be bass. That would be true for output as well. So on the second Ml10x, you can choose which channel, L or R, goes to which pedal chain. You’d combine chains at the end of the second Ml10x, keeping stereo image.

Would that work?
