Hi… I want to use my organelle as an effects pedal for my blofeld desktop, but don’t know how… I have two regular 1/8” cables with two sides to each, and a one input guitar amp… how do I do this? ---

Looks like you know how to : [How to easily route the signal path to be useful as an effects processor AND a sound source](https://forum.critterandguitari.com/t/how-to-easily-route-the-signal-path-to-be-useful-as-an-effects-processor-and-a-sound-source/3792/10?u=tonylb) I do not understand your question. ---

Does the Organelle do stereo processing? If so you could also do: Blofeld headphone out (TRS) > Organelle input \> stereo effects out of organelle’s L/R outs. - edit \* oh right guitar amp, but that would work otherwise? ---

Yes a bunch of patches do stereo processing, but since guitars only output mono most amps just have a mono input and output. I use studio monitors or headphones with my organelle. Performing live, you can send the stereo output to the mixing desk or you could use two smaller amps either side of a stage if you wanted to retain a characteristic guitar amp speaker tone and still retain a stereo sound. ---

So does it not work unless you put headphones in? Also, how do you stay on the stereo patch while going to an fx patch ---

Sorry, I can’t understand what you are asking. Stereo isn’t a patch, it is an audio state defined by having two separate audio channels (left and right). The organelle works just fine without any headphones or cables - you just won’t be able to hear it. The manual has info on how to connect your organelle to other equipment: [https://critterandguitari.github.io/Organelle\_Manual/](https://critterandguitari.github.io/Organelle_Manual/)
