Beginners guide to guitar effects groupings order FX loops signal path 

Maybe you can explain that to me, when I loop my mud honey pedal on my marshall mg100 into the effects loop, it just sounds awesome. But I have to swap the send and return connections, i.e. connect them crosswise. what's going on ??? Greetings 🐈

Subscribed and liked. I just need to figure out where to put the noise gate and tuner. Figure turner in front maybe even the out of the Volume Pedal (Has tuner out) and noise gate/suppressor goes last int the Effects Loop after the Delay.

for sure - so much gear on the market today - so many choices. Thanks again for watching. Take care, and rock on! -David Taub, Next Level Guitar Inc. & EGI

@@rockongoodpeople I used to think that batteries was the quietest way to power pedals. True for some fuzz and I have over 40. Did you find it $17 pedals. I just bought 2 both of them Boosts. Though they have volume tone gain controls. Lol. Anyway heaps of pedals under 30$ at the moment.

Hi Raul and thank you for watching this lesson. Regarding your question the bar on the guitar is called a tremolo arm or whammy bar. By rocking that arm it changes the pitch of the note and you can do it very subtle for a vibrato like or shaking of the note effect or very deep for dive bomb and all kinds of crazy sounds can be achieved by working the bar. The pedal on the floor you are talking about is a wah pedal. This is a different effect. The wah pedal alters the tone and frequencies of the guitar signal to create a distinctive sound. The pedal sweeps the peak response of a frequency filter up and down in frequency to create the sound. Both awesome things you can do with effects.

No problem at all Oscar and thank u for checking out this video - most appreciated. Regarding your question on EQ pedal placement. Like I was mentioning in the video there are no rules set in stone and you want to experiment and see what sounds best to your ears. With EQ pedals a lot depends on what u want to achieve with the pedal. For starters you probably want it before the delay and reverb pedals for sure. But then it gets personal. Some prefer to mold and shape their guitar’s primary tonal character before it is processed by other effects, but others prefer to adjust the EQ of the finished sound. Or maybe your distortion pedal’s EQ controls just don’t have enough bass or treble and you need to tweak its tone a touch more. So al to comes down to how u want to use the EQ pedal and experiment to see what works best for you. Hope that helps Oscar.

Thanks so much. I just decided to place it firsts... Before Modulation and Time effects pedals... Thanks a lot for your guidance! I will have a look at the channel for sure!

Hi Frank and thank u so much for checking out this lesson - really appreciate that. Regarding your question - there are really no set rules for which channel to have your amp on with effects - it all depends on what sounds you are going for and what u like best. However there are conventional wisdoms - and then of course you want to experiment and find what sounds best to your ears. Most players run their effects through the clean channel of their amps when using distortion or overdrive pedals. This is so they get the pure sounds of the pedal and not have the pedal color then added with more amp distortion from the amp distortion. You could run it through the distortion channel though but that adds more gain on top of the gain from the pedal - so unless u like that sound you probably want to go thru the clean channel. Because remember too that if you run it thru the clean channel then you can turn the pedal off and kick to the distortion pedal of the amp and then you have the amps distortion channel, you have the amp clean channel, and you have the amp clean channel with the distortion pedal u can engage. Try it like that and see how u like it and remember to put the overdrive pedal in front of the amp and try it with the gain on the pedal turned down a bit and the level on the pedal up a bit to help push the amp. Make sense. And if you are interested in a deeper dive I have a whole course on Gear and Settings and signal chain called THE GEAR GUIDE - Its a complete guide that eliminates the distortion from the seemingly overwhelming number of choices and settings we have today. Over six hours of lessons where you will learn which pedals can I put first and last in the chain, Which pedals do I place in the effects loop and which in front of the amp, How to go about setting a whole rig as far as the signal chain, the difference between overdrive and distortion, How does spring reverb compares to hall, room and plate reverb, How do effects loops work, what are the differences between analog and digital delay, What’s the difference between tremolo and vibrato, What do all those parameters and knobs mean on my pedals, How can I easily nail down a classic electric blues tone, And so much more!

Hi there - regarding your Blackstar Core 100 amp the effects loop for that amp has a send and a stereo return in case you are running in stereo - like a left side and right side. But for just one amp use you just use the two jacks for the effects loop - the send and left return, which is mono. So hook the input of your first effect to the send of the amp effects loop and connect the out of the last effect in your chain to the return left mono jack of the amp. Then you should be good to go!

Hi and thanks so much for your kind words and for checking out our lessons - so appreciated. The best power for your pedals is independent power sources - chaining them together, via daisy chain means they share that same power and more likely than not you will get all kinds of noise and performance issues with the pedals. Always try for independent power sources like I mention in the video. I think Delay is best in the effects near the end of the chain. As far as looper pedals, keep in mind they are not effects per se but more a recorder. And you can place them in various parts of the chain depending on how you want to use the looper. There isn't any hard and fast rules so you want to experiment with placement. Keep in mind that an effect placed before the looper will get recorded to the loop and then switched off for the next layer. An effect placed after the looper can be switched on and off while the loop is still playing, but everything coming out of the looper runs through it. If you create multiple layers, the effect will be on every one of them. This can be a powerful creative tool. So a lot depends on how u want to use the looper and often I find most of my students find the sweet spot in the chain after some experimenting for watts works best for their scenario. And If your looper has multiple outputs, each loop can be processed and effected individually. This works exceptionally well if your looper has independent switching for each layer; reverb on the “drum” layer, fuzz on the “bass” layer, delay on the “rhythm” layer, etc. This will help set your layers apart from one another.

HI and thank u for checking out this lesson. Im not sure I totally understand ur question. Let me explain a bit. With effects there are no rules per se - just conventional wisdoms, and lots of experimentation and trail and error and see what sounds best to your ears. I do like overdrives and distortion pedals before the amp as then they tend to kick the amp a bit harder and drive them a bit. So out of the guitar and into those pedals and then into the front of the amp so those pedals are before the preamp and power amp. And I like delays, reverbs, and modulation effects in the amp effects loop so they are in between the preamp and power amp. Hope that helps. Enjoy and stay tuned - lots more content coming soon.

Hi and thank u for watching this video and for your kind words - really appreciated. There isn't any right or wrong way to hook up ur rig per se - you want to experiment and find what sounds best to your ears. But there are some conventional wisdoms. Personally I like delay and modulation effects in the FX loop of the amp. So you may want to try at least putting your delay then then gate in the FX loop in that order. You may have to adjust the gate setting so it doesn't cut off your delay trails. I like the modulation effects like chorus and phase in the FX loops also - but many like them in front of the amp. I have a really cool video on delay and getting good delay tone you may want to check out here - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-aOzVPJzpUKU.html - these these and let me know ur thoughts.

Hi - the tape delay would be considered a delay effect and I suggest putting that in the effects loop near the end of your chain if possible.

@@rockongoodpeople ..thanks..! I appreciate it!

Hi Chris and thank you for watching this video - most appreciated. First off I also like running delay and modulation effects in the amp FX loop. I wouldn't split the return as you may run into some signal loss. I suggest if you want to run the DS1 to hook that up in front of the amp and not have it in the FX loop. That pedal, and most OD and distortion pedals, in my opinion, sound best when placed in front of the amp as then they kick the amp harder and push it a bit more. So try it in front of the amp and keep the delay and chorus in the FX loop and see if that is the sound u want. Why did you want to run that DS1 in the return only - just curious? Experiment as there are no hard and fast rules when it comes to hooking up pedals - just conventional wisdoms pretty much.

@@rockongoodpeople Thank you!

@@rockongoodpeople I got the idea regarding using the return from other RU-vid videos but after experimenting it doesn't sound good at all doing that. The best and cleanest sound I get from my rig is to run the chorus and delay through the loop and the DS-1 out front. I appreciate you engaging with me !

Hi there and thank u so much for checking out my videos - really appreciated. To answer your question there are so many different amps on the market and while some do come with effects built in some dont and some just have a clean channel. Some amps do come with a clean channel and an overdrive channel but at times some players may love the clean sound of a given amp but hate the gain channel. So that clean channel can be a great platform for pedals and then they can use their favorite distortions and other effects. Some amps that come with effects built in often those effects may not be the sound a player is looking for as they may prefer the reverb they get from a certain pedal. It all comes down to personal preference. And often times amps that have built in digital effects like chorus or delays or chorus often times the controls or parameters of those built in effects are not great - you get way more control with a pedal. Its hard to find one amp that has every sound in it that you want as well as a great clean sound and a great dirty sound. So often pedals are added to color or get a certain effect. Hope that helps.

@@rockongoodpeople Very kind of you to give such a well explained answer. It's not that easy to understand this things especially to a dinosaur like me.

I guess,. Its up to your convenience which effect pedal you line up first. 😁 Since I have a multieffects pedal. I guess, looper comes first, then any type of delay, then any type of distortion, then finally overdrive for you to make adlib solo. 😁 Then finally the wah pedal comes in last. Irregardless of how many pedals you have. XD.

Hi Carl - yes, a lot of pedal order comes down to personal preference as there are no rules set in stone. However, there are conventional wisdoms. Some of those that I employ is putting delays and reverbs more last in the chain and in the FX loop if possible. I also like distortions and overdrives in front of the amp so like coming out of guitar first into wah then into overdrive drive pedal then into front of amp. Then delay and reverb in FX loop. With a multi effects pedal you can try lining them up however u like but try overdrives more in the front and delays and reverbs in the back. Just a suggestion.
