Should I connect those modulation pedals between the send-return loop of NS-2? Or exclude them out of the the loop?
Also, should I connect the AW-3 before the send-return loop of the NS-2? Or I just connect it between the loop to get the best result?
thx for opinion... |

| I would put them all in the loop. The loop of the NS-2 isn't like the effect loop of an amp where things will be connected after the input valve so you can put everything inside the loop. Just remember that the order of the pedals inside the loop will also be important. |

thanks a lot, however, there are two things that i worry about:
1.The Boss effect Guide Book said that those delay pedals should be excluded from the loop, should i follow that ?
2.there are some modulation pedals which are equipped by stereo out jacks. if i connect them inside the loop of NS-2, it is less likely for me to use the stereo out jacks anymore, because there is only mono return jack equipped in the NS-2.., so, should i exclude those stereo equipped modulation pedals from the loop of NS-2?
thanks... |

How you connect your pedals is a truely personal affair, however there are some facts about the LS-2 you may want to consider:
# connect pedals in the loop, and you will loose signal. [just try for yourself: connect them in loop, then connect them before pedal, and listen to what you the differences in sound.
# the loop gives you additional volumeoptions which you may like for modulation effects such as chorus as flange. Why? Because it make the effects more pronounced.
AW-3 is an envelopefilter, they work best right infront of the signalchain because they respond to dynamics in your playing.
You can put them in the loop if you would like to add volume to the AW-3, if you do not need this I would just put them before the loop.
[AW-3 is like a wah pedal, usually you have the right at the beginning of the chain, but you can experiment: place the AW-3 after a distortion and it acts as a filter ---changes in your tone--- for your distortion]
Generally speaking you would not put a AW-3 after a modulationeffect such as chorus, because you would not hear the AW-3's response very well, but experiment with your set-up to find out about the sounds you like. |
