Hi guys !
Until now, I've been plenty happy with my pedalboard which was in the same configuration for a while. There was just a little space in it that I decided to fill with ordering a Volume Pedal, Boss FV30H in this case (all the other ones that are not mini, are too big).
My plan is to use the Volume Pedal for cleaning the amp gain when needed (I suck at using my guitar volume knob depending on what I play) and I'd do some swells on clean settings as well, but probably not much. Obviously, I plan on putting the volume pedal early in my chain, first was my initial thought.
I have a Noise Suppressor, Boss NS-2 (4 cable method) and also a Morley Bad Horsie Wah (and a Polytune 2 tuner, true bypass, which will go into the tuner out of the volume pedal).
Here is my current config :
Guitar->Wah (Bad Horsie)>NS-2 Input>Ns-2 Send>Tuner>Modulation>Tube Screamer>Amp
Amp Send>NS2 Return>Ns2 Output>EQ>Modulation>Delay>Reverb
I either put the Wah or NS2 first, and never noticed a difference to be honest. Right now the wah is first, but used to be first in the NS2 loop.
As Morley calls it a "clear tone" thing, I'm not sure whether the Wah is true bypass or buffered, but I guess it's some kind of buffer, and I'm pretty sure the NS-2 is buffered. My modulations are provided by Boss MD500, which is buffered I think when you don't change that parameter and my Delay and Reverb are also Boss, so buffered I guess.
Adding this passive 250K volume pedal, I wonder where it should sit. Like I said, my initial thought was first, then NS-2 or Wah.
Now would some buffered pedal would be good upfront or would it hurt ?
How the NS2 will react with the volume pedal ?
When the volume pedal backed off, is there a scenario in which the NS-2 will do more unwanted noise cutting ?
I'm actually not so much concerned about the wah, although for practical reason if I could put it first with NS2 second and Volume Pedal third position, that'd be really cool as I'd just put the volume pedal in the gap I have on my pedalboard without changing anything else.
But I'm not feeling it would work (unless maybe I change for a FV30L for third position in the chain ? It's not too late for doing that by the way, I'd lose tuner out though).
My biggest concern is Volume Pedal and NS2 interaction (although if placed first, the volume pedal is just another guitar volume right ?)
