Running a Dlator with reverb & delay in the loop on my Dlite. What's the best spot for an Xotics AC booster. Front end of the amp or the loop.

Overdrives/boosts sound their best when they are hitting the preamp stage of your amp. I belive that most effect loops(not sure about yours) are between the preamp and phase inverter sections. However, time based effects, such as reverb, delay, and tremelo, work very well in the effects loop of most amps.
