This connection is good for stomp

PARALLEL LOOP
This connection is good only for
modulation effects (chorus, phaser
etc..) or ambient effects (delay, reverb
etc..)
In order to achieve a great sound you
MUST exclude the DRY SIGNAL from
the fx-processor (by using its internal
mixer).
GENERAL INFO ON EFFECTS & LOOP
FILTER EFFECTS
The filter effects main feature (see example) is the physical alteration of the signal wave, as a distortion pedal does.
This family of effects finds its best place between guitar and preamp input.
MODULATION EFFECTS
The modulation effects main feature (see example) is the addition or the overlapping of other curves or waves to the
input signal. This family of effects finds its best place in connection to the effects loop, i.e. between preamp and power
amp.
SERIAL LOOP
In the serial loop all the signal getting out of the preamp passes through the effects chain of the loop. During the
setting of the effect you have to consider that the sound is composed by a share of the original sound (DRY) and a
share of the processed sound (WET). They both come from the original sound and are mixed (MIX) INSIDE the effect
processor before being sent to the outputs.
PARALLEL LOOP
In a parallel loop a share of the signal getting out of the preamp passes unaltered through the loop circuit (DRY) and
a share reaches directly the SEND. The latter is processed by the effects, sent to the RETURN and then mixed with
the DRY. The effect quality is less important here than in the serial loop because the original DRY signal will be not
“colored” when it passes through the loop or the effect and the WET signal will be pleasantly added to the DRY signal.
