Compressor and modulation effects...

[Inconnu]

I often hear that a compressor placed after modulation effects is a bad thing. Why ?

[bongomania]

I've never heard that. The only thing I could imagine is in the case of modulation effects that make an annoying cyclical whooshing sound between notes--the compressor would make that whooshing louder.

The only reason I can think of is that mod effects usually come at the end of the chain, and adding a compressor after all your effects is just going to amplify the noise of all the effects.

Good, so it's simply a noise issue

my modulation effects all come before my compression which is on my amp head.
the only bad things are some of the notes i play

Salut,

I've had that set-up for awhile now and have had no noise or bad sound issue.

D'accord. J'évalue si je vais vers un rackmount ou une pédale.
(Good. I'm evaluating if I'll go with a rackmount or a pedal.)
