I need help setting up my pedals!!

Sign in to disble this ad
Ok, so i have an SVT3- pro Head with and ampeg 8x10 Classic... I have a Snarling Dogs Bootzilla Wah/fuzz pedal, A Digitech Bass driver, Boss Bf-3 Flanger, A BBE Sonic Stomp Sonic maximizer, and a Boss Rc20 Xl loop station. In what order would you set up my effects chain. And also my Svt-3 has an "FX Loop" in the back of the unit. What does that actually do? Should i be running my pedals through it? If so how the hell do i do that?

You can run your effects through the loop by running the "IN" from the first pedal in your chain into the "SEND" jack on the loop, and the last pedal's "OUT" into the "RETURN" jack. I personally do not like my pedals in the loop of my SWR.

The RC20 should go last so all of your effects will be processed within the loop instead of effecting the loop. Otherwise, play around! See what sounds good to you.

Here's a link to a helpful page created by our very own (awesome) Bongomania explaining how an effects loop works:
