Sign in to disble this ad
Just picked up a Sabine RT-7100 as part of a great deal on a 4U rack case. However, I've never used one of these things before. What is the best way to hook this thing up? Should I use the effects return in the back? I get the feeling maybe I should remove this thing from my signal chain if possible
Here's a link to the manual if anyone wants to peruse it: http://www.sabine.com/resources/Tune...-CD-020531.pdf

When I had it in front of the amp inputs I was not happy with the huge amount of tone suck that happened. |

I'd avoid using an effects loop for a tuner, simply for reasons of convenience.
