Pedal Problems * I need help
First off, i have a crate amp with an "effects loop" but it is only labed as insert.
i have 4 pedals,
wah
sustainer
compresser
and a loop station
i want the first three in the loop of the supressor(which i have) but i want the loop station in the effects loop, yet i dont know how to set it up correctly considering theres no return for the loop. Help?

yeah, on clean channels. Why not trash you peds and get one of those fancy effects bank thingys....Im a stupid drummer. OUr guitarist ran into the same thing, he has this thin box thing he just plugs into a dasiy chain of peds and life is good. Crate is pretty good. We all cant have the equipment Ludacris has. Jeah.

Well, what exactly is your problem? You're saying your amp's effect loop has only a return and not a send? What do you mean "insert"? And what model amp? The Loops Station has three inputs, and an output so tha can't be your problem. Details =
EDIT: What is the exact model?

It is a crate amp, it only has an "insert" plug. THis supposibly is the "send" for an FX loop. The problem is, im left with nowhere to "return"Sky Black wrote:Well, what exactly is your problem?

I've heard of a Y-SPLIT cable but i am unclear how to use it?
I would show pictures but i don't know how to put them on here.

Just hook it into the input, genius. You obviously can't figure out an FX loop.Shred-Dimebag wrote:It is a crate amp, it only has an "insert" plug. THis supposibly is the "send" for an FX loop.

Reverse the inputs man, it works everytime on 24 with that ugly mouse-faced girl.

Yeah, you'd run your guitar through the pedals, and the output from your last pedal into the input of the amp. Idiot.The Doctor wrote:Just hook it into the input, genius. You obviously can't figure out an FX loop.

Surpressor, last thing in your chain.

The point is i want the loop station by itself in the effects loop. Doing what you said accomplishes common sense.

supressor isnt last in my chain just because the sustainer makes alot of noise by itself. if i put it through the loop of the supressor then it doesnt make noise. im not here to argue im here to seek help.Sky Black wrote:Surpressor, last thing in your chain.
