Chain Effects Guitar Layout

Chain Effects Guitar Tips The delay pedal should be placed last in the chain as a rule if you’ve only got one channel on your guitar amp. But this set up can still cause an overdriven amp to over load and go a bit ga-ga very easily.

Chain Effects Guitar Tips If possible use a 2 – channel amp utilizing the effects send and return for your delay pedal – it’s much more controllable this way and sounds more natural. The other way sounds quite edge-y tho’ … The delay sounds great on the clean AND dirty channel using the special FX in and out puts.

Chain Effects Guitar Tips If your using a guitar processor in the FX Send + Return be very careful to match the impedance – should be in the manual if your not sure how to check this. Pedals don’t suffer as a rule from this possible impedance mismatch – which can result in a weak sound.

good article guys…..
Hi there,
You guys got the line-up very correct! I built all my 10 Boss effects into a nice wooden with nappa dressed floor case(inclisive: Wha/Swell and( just)Swell). Looks beautiful! And sound beautiful! Took me a while to put the chain correct, but I managed. I hooked a Noise Gate at the end,btw. Also from Boss; helps alot, I must say. Does get rid of the ‘hiss’ that can build-up, when you use 3-4 effects. As long as you adjust the ‘threshold’ correctly: no worries at all! Have had it like this for some 10 or more years.
Thank you for listening…..
