Tav Posted March 24, 2004 Report Share Posted March 24, 2004 I had an article on this but I have forgotten. Which is the recommended order to have your stomp boxes connected.I am thinking Wah/Volume >>> Distortion >>> Modulation >>> Delay but I can't remember for love nor money!

Hog Posted March 24, 2004 Report Share Posted March 24, 2004 Surely it depends on the desired effect you want on your sound Tav? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tav Posted March 24, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2004 Yeah but there's a recommended way. I've had fun mixing a Vox Wah and DOD Grunge pedal about and getting some MAD sounds...really extreme! I would just like to know how it "should" be done.

craig deadenstereo Posted March 25, 2004 Report Share Posted March 25, 2004 Technically, any effect that effects the tone of the input signal goes between guitar and the amp, and any time based or modulation effect goes in the loop (parallel loop)But in the general scheme of things you're right.Wah or distortion, then compression, then modulation then delay.But if you can, put modulation (tremelo, phase/flange, chorus), delays and EQs in the loop.Craig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundian Posted March 25, 2004 Report Share Posted March 25, 2004 Compress before distortion. I'd compress before wah as well unless it's multi-band compression. The bassier notes/sounds will get compressed more otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
