Members lenster Posted August 10, 2008 Members Share Posted August 10, 2008 Played 1st gig last night with EVH Phase 90. I have it 1st in the chain in my loop ... EVH > H20> MXR eq.I only used it partially in a few somgs as every time i kicked it in my tone was sucked dry ...NOT Happy.Should i maybe put it in front after FD2,OR get a mod done , or is this just the nature of the beast?

Members LowWoods Posted August 10, 2008 Members Share Posted August 10, 2008 Putting modulation in front of dirt seems to not drop the volume. Try it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try it out So you're saying that being in the loop after my preamp could be the problem? I thought modulation / Delay was better in the loop. I should try this out hey.

Members LowWoods Posted August 10, 2008 Members Share Posted August 10, 2008 Well, I'm a home recording dip{censored} and I put everything in front of the amp. When I played around with a phaser before the dirt, I was very happy with the results. No volume drop and the dirt was nice and clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Experiment and report back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members L6Sguy Posted August 10, 2008 Members Share Posted August 10, 2008 phaser is not as much modulation as it is filter-y, try it at the front of chain (gtr-->phaser-->amp). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members greenweenie Posted August 10, 2008 Members Share Posted August 10, 2008 Did you try it with your amp at home? These situations can be avoided if you thoroughly tested your gear before the gig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members greenweenie Posted August 10, 2008 Members Share Posted August 10, 2008 Or it could be his effects loop is parallel as opposed to series. My Marshall has a parallel effects loop and it does the exact thing he described. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These situations can be avoided if you thoroughly tested your gear before the gig. Yeah you're right.But unfortunately the pedal arrived thursday and my gear was in the rehearsal room and i didn't get to it until the day of the gig.Just excited to try it out and thought that was the best spot to put it.Good learning curve for me . So i think i'll try Guitars > wah>comp>phase>dirt>tuner> amp.Chorus>Delay >EQ ,LOOP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
