Effets Loop pedals. Help. My brain.

[santucci218]

Seriously, I don't get why I cant think of this by myself, but Help me figure this out please! I need to know how many different loops I would need, and then plot out what goes into what.

Clean
Clean With effects
Distortion with all effects
Distortion minus whammy.

Now, my problem is, I want to make this the least amount of steps as possible. I know that I will still have to have to take 1 step to change the amps channel, but what pedal, pedals will make this minimal? Could I get away with 2 boss LS2's?

one. plug "all effects" into the one loop. then, put your distortion and/or your whammy outside the loop (before/after). that way the loop will turn on all your effects and you can go from all to just clean

you wouldn't even have to put your distortion or whammy outside your loop. you can still turn effects on and off when they're in a loop

for now, i'm saying just one

A programmable loop strip would probably be your best option

If I leave my whammy outside the loop, it will degrade the poop out of my tone. No go.
