I've found that if you secretly run really long cables and a tuner pedal to the effects loop of a guitarist who doesn't use it, you can randomly stomp the tuner and mute his amp. This will confuse the crap out him and make him keep checking everything. A volume pedal works wonders like this, too!
@@SCVM__ Actually, yes! Make him play an electric kit and run the tuner inline to the amp. Otherwise, there is another trick that I did to my old drummer's acoustic kit. There are these little sticky gel things that they sell to put on the bottom heads to stop excess resonance and ringing. Put them on the bottom of his cymbals! It totally confuses the crap out of drummers when they hit one and it just gives a 'click.'
Depending on your amp, just a patch cable going to the in and out of the effects loop adds an extra buffer stage and can tighten your sound or sometimes clean up a noise preamp
Cool video!!!! I never thought of some of the uses you came with. Here’s one you didn’t touch on. Some amps have a blendable fx loop where you can blend the fx loop with your clean tone. When you run a dirt pedal in the fx loop and blend in a little of your clean tone you get a similar effect to running a bi-amp rig without having to haul around 2 amps. I’m using an Ampeg SVT 7 pro which has the blend option as well as having a footswitchable fx loop for when you want to remove all your pedals from the signal chain. I use it like a second channel on my amp with all my pedals run through the loop
Do you use any other pedals? My question is, what about the other stuff like Wahs, modulations etc? How’s all that tie in if you’re running your guitar into the Sansamp, into the power amp direct?
@@XxStonedImmaculatexX lol I hope not. I was thinking you could probably run your pedals one into the other, into into the preamp pedal, into the effects return/preamp in. I mean, that's essentially the singnal chain when you plug directly into the amp, right?
I never really loved the preamp on my GK 700RB as it was a bit too scooped for my tastes, so I bought a Mesa Subway DI pedal, put that into the FX Return, and got the tone I want.
Nice way to use loops! I use them mostly to troubleshoot the amp. If you plug headphones into a "dead" amp's loop and you can hear signal, no sense trying to fix anything before that! What's left is the final amp and the speakers. Used this to check out a Line 6 and in minutes, after checking the output using the external speaker out jacks, found both speakers blown. Interesting note, the customer said it worked great and when he was playing but it "just quit". Hard to blow two 80 watt Clestron speakers and not notice, but hey, replacing the speakers fixed it for him.
I had a similar revelation recently regarding putting a pre-amp into the effects loop. Previously I had my pedal board going straight into my Darkglass Microtubes 900 V2. The last pedal on that chain was my Darkglass Alpha Omega Ultra. I wanted to try and combine distortions to create something disgusting without much success. When I put the AOU into the effects loop of the amp, holy shit! This video would have saved me two days worth of tone quest!
Very informative video! I like to use the FX loop on my 2 channel Sunn amp by using both channels, then using the preamp out on one of the channels to power a guitar amp. Personally, I found that to give the best bi-amping sound. The bass cab handles the lows and the guit. cab handles the highs much better than going the mixing/blending route.
I wish they would show what cables are going where everytime. I'm getting really frustrated hearing people talk about effects loops and i can't figure out how to get them to work for me, especially addind an EQ in the loop with out bypassing the pre amp.
Great video colleague, thanks n much blessings! I got curious and started plugin my goods and shuffling cables when I realized I was feeding the send of my Ampeg with the end of the chain of pedals, then when I plugged the Bass on the pre amp and driver (BK7 Ultra)... it worked as a loop looping on the loop... 😎🤷🏽♂️, the Aux in on the Ampeg and the return are unused, I’ll be trying to do some more experiments... open to ideas like gating or parallel effects, Tape delays and ululating moods for low vintage fidelity etc! You got me started with this, Thanks 🙏
I just bought a Markius Miller SWR Preamp and it just occurred to me I'm not sure how to connect it to my various integrated (have both pre-amp and amp) bass amps? I have a EBS 802 and a Ashdown 12-band... both have an effects loop only and a DI out.. no other inputs besides the instrument cable input on the front.. so what do you suggest?
Great! Is it possible to use the FX Return, without using the FX Send, as a secondary bass line input, to run in parallel to the main chain instrument input? For instance: Main chain: Bass - Compressor - Pré-Amp “Wet” Output - Head Input Secondary chain: Pré-Amp “Dry” Output - Octaver - Chorus - Tuner - Head FX Return Or: Main chain: Bass - Compressor - Signal Split 1st Output - Pré Amp - Head Input Secondary chain: Signal Split 2nd Output - Octaver - Chorus - Tuner - Head FX Return Or even inverting the chains in the 2 possible situations above (maybe it could be better). Would the use of this second chain “kill” or vanish the signal of the main chain? Even if it works, could it cause some damage to the equipment?
I enjoy a lot of the content that this channel puts out, and it’s even one of the few channels I’m subscribed to.. but are we all going ignore the fact that the logo on his t-shirt is the inversion of the Darkglass logo with three less bass clefs? Just wondering if anyone else noticed..
You could split your bass output with a Y cable, run one to your amp in, the other to a preamp pedal, then use an ABY box to switch between your amps effects out, or the preamp pedal out, then send that to the effects return. Bass -> Y cable -> amp in -> fx send -> ab -> fx return -> preamp pedal ->
Effects loops are a great option if you have an amp modeler and you're at a gig with a sound guy that has no idea how to hook it up to the mixer. Just plug the modeler into the effects return and the sound guy can mic the live cabinet like he's used to. Just make sure to turn off the cabinet simulation in your amp modeler.
How about if your amp doesn't have a di, can you send a cable from your effects send to a direct box for front of house or recording? And will that have the effects from your pedal board (going into front instrument jack)?
When I run my pedalboard through the FX loop in my Fender Rumble 500 210 V3(with extension 210 cab)there is a high pitch feed back sound. What am I doing wrong?
Lots of variables there. Not all pedals are suitable for running in the loop. There are no hard and fast rules, but generally we'd keep envelope-dependent and gain/dirt pedals in front of the amp input, and then put modulation and delay and such in the loop.
Would you mind explaining the signal path to use a preamp pedal in the fx loop. I like the idea of having once sound with the amp and the engaging the pedal to create something different t but unaffected by the amp eq
I have a TECH 21 Bass Fly Rig. I love it, but it produces a loud hum. When I connect it as an FX Loop, it works and reduces the hum, a lot, but, per your videos, does not negate the tone controls on my Ampeg SVT-7 Pro. Do you know if this is a function of the Fly Rig or the amp. BTW, I've tried playing it wet and dry. Thanks.
Cool video! Can I also run my signal from my effects loop to the mixer, essentially going "direct" to the PA and bypassing my amp's own power section? For live mixing reasons, I would love to do this.
@@marcandrebrassard what sort of plug or connection do you use? I wouldn't mind having my 100 and 250 watt amps playing my CDs or radio. I've seen a practice amp with stereo rca plugs in the back. I don't have those. The volume knobs did nothing to make the Eva signal play any louder.
I use an Ampeg SVP-BSB into the Return on a GK 800RB, and use the loop on the clean side for a Compressor. It makes for a really great one rack space power amp. I wish it went down to 2 ohms though...
Question for The Bass Channel. How would your run a floor multi effect pedal, like Boss GT-1b or Line 6 bass podxt. Can you still get great tone using multi effects like stomp effects??
Also #7 using it as ‘tuner out’ either with just fx send to tuner switched on or with output of tuner to fx return so it acts as a mute for the entire rig
im pretty new to all this stuff, i have probably a pretty stupid question, can i take one of those slim looking rack pre amps and hook it up to say, my soldano slo 100 main amp? ive heard of doing this to get desired tones from the preamp to bypass say, my soldano preamp. im just using the soldano as an example. how do i do this? if at all? i know he talks about this, but i just wanna be sure im not doing anything wrong....so anything i hook up to my soldano effects loop is bypassing its preamp? im talking about guitar too
Have an ampeg portaflex 350 the drive is pretty good and I thought to myself okay what if I put my joyo ultimate drive into the loop and boom 2 drives made one hell of a bass fuzz. Thanks for the heads up on how to use a noise gate could be really useful for band practice when instead of cranking my amp to deafening volume.
Great topic. Glad you guys covered it. I’ve been going back and forth for a while personally using my HX Stomp and their Darkglass model and deciding which I like better. Going into the front of my TC Electronic RH450 OR it’s power amp in. I feel like the tone is better preserved bypassing the TC preamp (though it’s a preamp that doesn’t have a whole lot of character IMO anyway) but, and maybe it’s just my ears, it feels like a weaker (very subjective but it’s just something I can completely put into technical terms) sound then when it’s plugged into the front of the amp and for the most part keeping the Eq pretty flat. Do you guys have thoughts on that?
While stalling on buying am A/B box to biamp my 2 transistor amps, I tried connecting them via the effects loops. I found that the 2 units had the effects loops routed different ways and not really how I wanted. I eventually chose to run out of the back of the Hartke into the instrument in on the Marshall. This allowed the tube emulation on the Hartke to color the Marshall, but not the 7band eq to do the same. I forget what was the failure of trying to run the Marshall's Preamp Out or Effects Out into the Marshall. Having to use my 20 foot instrument cable to go from Effects Out on the back to Instrument In instead of my 6" patch cable was less than ideal also, but that damned thing was too much for my room to begin with.
Just for the public record, I went back and experimented with biamping the Hartke HA2500 and the Marshall 3510 together via effect loop jacks. The Hartke's effect out is: post compressor, pre equalizer, pre contour/band pass boost. The Marshall's effect out and preamp out are post eq. If both amps have send and returns plugged to each other: no sound.
Do not plug into the amps instrument input, thays how stuff gets damaged. Also both amps need a speaker load if you are slaving them otherwise you will damage the amp
can someone help me, i want to use my helix lt as an effects board into the effects loop of the darkglass 500.... in the house i am using the di out on darkglass into my interface... i get no sound at all when i plug into the return on darkglass... i cant figure out what way to set it up
The last use interests me... so are you saying I can basically increase the overall volume of my amp? Or am I still limited to the amps power section? For example, if I'm using a small solid state amp, say 50W, and I have the master volume maxed out, can I cleanly increase the volume still by adding a clean boost in the effects loop?
If your master volume is already maxed, this probably won’t help you cleanly amplify your sound further, however, if you don’t have your volume maxed and just need a temporary volume increase, you’re good to go.
Hello gentlemen, I wondered if you could give me some advice and knowledge please? Would it be possible to use gain pedals through the FX loop on a bass amp and use their volume (or the loop volume) to blend them with the clean channel at the front of the amp to create a dirty clean blend? (For example trying to create the muse bass tone on a budget)
So I have this weird issue everytime I use a pedal on my Orange amp it creates a really grungy sound that lasts for a long time in the amp it self no matter where I use it can somebody help please? Thank you.
What do you think about using a Digitech Drop pedal in the loop? I haven't gotten it to work correctly on bass anywhere past 1 step down for my active basses. I haven't tried yet, but my theory is using it in the loop may allow it to do its job better. Thoughts?
