Members bnelly428 Posted January 26, 2007 Members Share Posted January 26, 2007 Im sure theres a bunch of threads on this, and i'd behappy with a link to another thread but i know its all subjective about pedal placement in and out of loops, but what do you guys use/find the best placement of pedals in the loop and in front of the amp? dist/od/wah chrous/flanger/delay/boost/octave please discuss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members FLYING V 83 Posted January 26, 2007 Members Share Posted January 26, 2007 I've never used the effects loop on any amp I've ever owned in over 35 years. Everything through the front. Wah, phase & chorus before dirt. Tremolo, delay, reverb after dirt. Of course, fuzz is always first before anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Lanefair Posted January 26, 2007 Members Share Posted January 26, 2007 Don't put anything before an octaver except for compressors and smooth fuzzes! It's no wonder people bitch about tracking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bnelly428 Posted January 30, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 30, 2007 i was just listing effects, thats not how i placed themI have these effects right now, don't judge because im a boss head BossMT-2BF-2OC-2TU-2DD-6CE-5Morely Wah/VolumeI tried octave>delay>chorus>flanger in the loop, then Tuner>dist>wah in front, but it sounds like im getting an extra distorted sound when i have an effect in the loop on with my in front distortion. any ideas? its quite possible my amps a piece of garbage, marshall valvestate, only one speaker works, no reverb etc etc....

Compressor last? Wouldn't that kill the eq'ing/dynamics of all the pedals you put in front of it? I've never tried one there, always just put them first. I sold mine a few weeks ago, just wondering.

Probably how the buffer is reacting to the drive from the preamp. Must buffers were designed to work with the signal from your guitar, not the high power from your amp, so they tend to lower the volume a bit when disengaged and up it when you hit the pedal. I just don't personally mess with the fx loop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members anti-flag193 Posted January 30, 2007 Members Share Posted January 30, 2007 Of course, fuzz is always first before anything. Interesting. I have my monsterpiece THM last...Maybe I'll have to try it first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
