This is a quick poll to see how you guys are running time based effects with older style Marshall amps with no effects loop:
On that note, anyone know where Eric Johnson places his echolpex?
Where do you place your echo/delay pedal POLL.

If there's no quiet, there can be no loud.

The signal goes from my guitar to the my board, which is exclusively dirt and boost pedals except for my wah. From the board it goes to the amp. From the amp it goes into a Hotplate set to load. I run the line out from the HP to the rack, which has a Roland SDE-1000 digital delay (not in the picture above) which I use for delay, and a TC Electronics M300 which I use for reverb and to split the signal in two. Then the signal goes into a Peavey Classic 50/50 stereo power amp with each side plugged into half of the 1960A cab.

Um, I don't know 'cause I can't see it, as it is on the back of the Hotplate facing away from me. I set it as hot as I can get it without overloading the input of the SDE-1000 which is the first thing in line after the Hotplate. Like most rack units, the SDE-1000 has LEDs that show red when you're overloading it, so it's easy to hit the sweet spot.blfrd wrote:Just curious, how hot do you have the potentiometer set on the Line out of your hotplate?
at 12 o'clock, mine was way too hot for pedals.

Here's what this rig sounds like...
