effects to amp vs. effects loop?
hi all
just wondering if someone can tell me the difference between hooking my guitar to my effects box then to the amp, versus hooking my guitar straight to the amp, and then using the effects send & return to hook up my effects box (effects loop)? thank you!

if you're talking about your Boss AD3, I'd suggest plugging it "in line", meaning between the guitar and amp/p.a.

Try it and see...

The real question is ''Can you tell a difference?'' Hooking your rig up both ways to compare is an easy experiment to conduct on your own. Some choices concerning effects boil down to practicality versus technicality. |

well if your amp has a mix knob for your effects loop, you can dicate how much effect you get...also some effects maybe louder than others if you go through the effects loop it should eliminate that problem and keep the effects the same volume.
