    Need help with pedal order..

    I’m new to effects so I’m trying to figure out which order these should go in. I ordered a DOD milk box which should be coming in today, and I think I’ve gathered enough to be satisfied (at least for now, lol). I know pedal order is subjective but I wanted some input from people who have at...

    Bigger board, help me set it up

    I just got the Ghostfire board (16.5"*11.8") off of Amazon and a new power supply. My old mini board could do about 4 pedals, but I'm looking to add a few more. I'm gonna use the small board with an old tuner and a SABDDI for my cover band, and then the bigger board with more sounds for my rock...

    Octaver before or after envelope filter?

    I know where I want my other pedals but which of those would you put before the other - octaver or envelope filter?

    Order?

    I knew what order to put my pedals when I was a guitar player… Bass has me scratching my head. I assume an envelope follower needs to go before anything that compresses correct? Then the compression… How about an octaver… do you place that before or after dirt? But certainly after any...

    This will only take a Nanosecond...

    This could be the easiest (or hardest) question you’ve had all day, and if so, :thumbsup:! I recently bought this Nano board for just the essentials. I’ll be gigging with a variety cover band doing some R&B, blues, country, jazz, and most anything that just needs a clean, solid, full sound...

    I got a Pre-amp/DI for Christmas! But where do I put it?

    Hey all! I posted a thread a while ago asking about adding some OD/distortion to my tone to give it a bit of crunch. Some people recommended adding a Pre-amp with a distortion switch which will have the benefit of a DI as well. I did some research and decided to go with the EHX Battalion...

    Hello, As the Dark Waves is an Echo Chorus I do not know where to put it in my signal chain. My chain is currently tuner>compress>octave>dirt>envelope filter>chorus>delay. I'm thinking it's got to be the chorus spot or after the delay. I just need to know. Thanks to all!!

    Pedal Order Paradox: Octave/Filter/Comp

    OK, here's a challenge to the TB community. I have Octave, Filter and Compressor pedals (amongst others!). Octave sounds better going before the filter. The compressor helps the tracking of the octave if it is in front of it. Yet a compressor in front of a filter kills it. So is there a...

    GT10b stereo input?

    I'm wanting to send a stereo audio signal through my GT10b. However, the GT10b only has a single 1/4 jack input. Can I send a stereo signal through this input if I use a TRS cable? Or will it just be mono?
