the input of amp 2. Flip the Loop Switch to ON and make sure that your AB box is on on 
both channels. Amp 1 will get the PB-1's Compressor, Distortion and Overdrive and amp 
2 will get the PB-1's Delay and Spring Reverb. This is a very cool sound, especially if 
you keep the amp that's receiving the Delay and Spring Reverb at a lower volume than 
the other one.

I am sure that there are further unexplored and cool ways to use the PB-1's Loop that 
have evaded me while writing this manual. The examples I've mentioned here are pretty 
much the most useful. As more options become apparent I will post them on the site.

Here are some illustrations featuring the above scenarios.
