This is about placement of stomp boxes in my effects loop
My amp (Hartke GT60) has an effects send/return loop built in... it says
In-line effects (such as foot pedals) intended for low signal levels should be placed between your guitar and the front panel GT SERIES amplifier input and not connected with the rear panel Effects Loop jacks.
Later it talks about "professional external signal processor that has Line-level inputs and outputs" being put into the Effects Loop.
As I read this, ALL my stomp boxes should be ahead of the input and not in the effects loop. I guess my confusion stems from not being sure about what they mean by "low signal level".
Is this how you all set up your effects? In my old Crate I set them all into the effects loop - I guess that was wrong? Are there some effects that are better ahead of the input and some better in the effects loop?
Sorry for sounding stupid here - but I can't help it...
