A post-distortion eq can reduce mids if you want to restore a scooped mid sound.
That was the clearest example I could think of, but the same would hold true of a wah or chorus, do you want to distort the chorus or chorus the distortion?]]> Guitar Players Discussion slothrob https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/location-of-pedals-in-a-chain/#post-81748 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/location-of-pedals-in-a-chain/#post-81747 Tue, 28 Dec 2004 01:25:53 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion Ignar Hillström https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/location-of-pedals-in-a-chain/#post-81747 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/location-of-pedals-in-a-chain/#post-81741 Tue, 28 Dec 2004 00:26:31 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion cerberus https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/location-of-pedals-in-a-chain/#post-81741 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/location-of-pedals-in-a-chain/#post-81609 Mon, 27 Dec 2004 05:32:51 +0000
When your experimenting listen to the impact an effect will have when you move it in and out of the signal chain. Remember everything and anything you add to your signal chain will effect the overall sound and tone.

This would be the standard ideal sequence before the amps pre-amp

guitar->eq->wah->octave->->Noise gate->compressor->eq->distortion->eq->echo->reverb

3 distortion pedals (but I only use the Boss DS-1 and the Rockson Metal Rocker...I also have a crazy old washburn that I rarely use unless i'm feeling funky)

Danelectro Vibrato
Digitech Autowah
MXR Phase 90


I want to use the autowah, the phase 90, the boss and the rockson. What order do I put them in??]]> Guitar Players Discussion U2Bono269 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/location-of-pedals-in-a-chain/#post-5856
