Most people I know put their looping devices and reverb units (aka time based effects) after distortion, volume, wah, etc (aka amplitude based effects). This allows you to lay a loop of your instrument sounding like one thing, then change the tone of your instrument for accompaniment or more layers. Don't feel like there's some sort of rule you must follow though. I would suggest experimenting with different setups for different recordings and sets. Personally, I arrange my looping units in sequence (one feeds into the other). This makes it easier to build fragmented and complex loops fairly quickly, especially when they're not in sync. Most other people I've seen with multiple loopers run them parallel, so they have more control over working with each loop independently. >"Gareth Hardwick" <gareth@olympia50.freeserve.co.uk> done wrote: I've got >a >few questions for those of you who use stompbox loopers, >particularly people who use two or more in their signal chan. > >How are they placed in the signal chain?
