PYPB 37: In a row?

So I just bought a boss ls-2 and and really confused on how I would use it in my setup. What I want to use it for is to send the dry out of my whammy to my two muffs and then send that back out to another amp with just the muffs in there. Really confused even after reading all these threads. Figure i'd ask you guys since i've seen it a lot on your boards.
 
I'm debating the top row of your board right now. I have a Boss TU-2, and access to a PBDDI. I am debating a compressor but from what I read the LMB-3 might be all I need. I just want to tame peaks a little and maybe just a touch of compression - like 3:1 or so. I may also try a Boss Chorus. I'm going Boss because it's local and I can try them and I'm not a big effects guy or need high end. Boss and Tech21 seem to be fine for many people.

Boss TU-2 works fine for me. As for the PBDDI, I just don't see myself playing without it, specially since my last changes allowed me to benefit from its DI. I don't have big dirt needs, so the Monkey's fine. If I need more, I stack it with the PBDDI's stock OD setting.

The LMB-3... I tried to sell it, couldn't get rid of it and since I needed this type of pedal for my home set-up, it worked its way back on the roster. And the weirdest thing, it works really well for me at this point. When using my live amp, I use the head's comp.

For the first time in a looooooong time, I find myself without any reall GAS.
 
Needs to all be tidied up, but I have all the pieces now...FINALLY!

I'm so excited i couldn't wait to post it!:cool:

Okay, I need to know what the Broke Dick Peanut Gallery does, but there is NO WAY I'm going to Google that.
:hiding:



I have to say--I've been here for 12 years, and I've never really ventured into these effects threads. Now that I've got FOUR pedals on the way (grabbed an EBS MultiComp from the Classifieds. I figure I need to start somewhere with Compressors...

You people are going to cost me a lot of money, aren't you?

:bassist:

with such a massive amount of pedals on one board, I need to ask,
How is the X blender used?

If I understand this correctly

Whammy dry to ls2 input.
Fx send A to muff input, muff output to fx return A
Repeat in B for other muff
Main output to amp

If you want just one at any time active, I think you want A - B - Bypass, though A+B could be all sorts of stacked muff fun. Two muffs are better than one.

Sounds right. This is my plan:


bass
whammy(two outs, one wet and one dry) i want both the wet and dry signal to go to the muffs
blah blah

send 1 out to an amp and send another out to another amp.
