Opinions: reverb before or after fx loop?

Post by markusw »

Suppose it's a matter of taste.
For me with e.g. a chorus in the fx loop it would somehow make sense to have the reverb after the loop.

Thanks in advance for your opinios :wink:

Regards,

Markus

I have a delay-chorus-reverb pedal through my Dumbleator.

Works great! :D

So you first have delay, then chorus, then reverb?
Did you ever try to put e.g. delay and chorus after the reverb?
In my two builds I put a single tube reverb after the loop.
As far as I know in the D'lite the reverb is before the send jack.....

I don't have a built in reverb.

I have the two passive jacks on the amp which I connect to the D'lator.

I did experiment with the signal chain in the loop and the way I have it sounds the best.

Sorry for the misunderstanding. That's exactly what I meant.
Whether you changed the order within your fx unit.

Thanks. Seems my decision to put the reverb after the fx loop wasn't a bad one :D
