| | | | Effects with Wireless Hello,
I am thinking of getting a wireless, I want a rackmount digital however, with my current setup I need to run my effects before my amp (which i generally like better anyways).
HOwever, should I not get teh rack mount since I need to run my effects before? I am thinking of now getting the smaller version to put on my pedalboard. How else would you do this? |

I run the Line 6 G30 now and the receiver is on my pedal board. Makes setup simple in that I run one cable from the end of the chain to the amp. It's not like running one more for a rack unit is really difficult but, hey, it's one more and, afterall, who wants another wire around when you're trying to be "wireless".
