e - How do I connect my effects pedals using the Effects Loop?

Marshall Amps :: Frequently Asked Questions
mentioned before, when time-based or ambient effects are used, the effects loop would be the logical place for connection. (Note; you should feel free to experiment with testing all effect types through the loop.) To connect an effect to the Loop, use a good quality, screened (shielded) instrument cable to connect your effect's input (Fig. 2.1) to the Effect Loop Send jack (Fig. 2.2).

What is the benefit of having an effects loop? Can I not simply connect all my pedals in series?

Tonebone Trimode tube distortion - Frequently Asked Question...
The advantage of having an effects loop is that it allows you to take pedals out of the signal chain when they are not in use. This reduces noise and will provide you with better tone. Most pedals are not ‘true bypass’ and therefore introduce a load on the signal which will affect the clean tone. See similar questions...

a - How and where should I place/connect my effects pedals?

Marshall Amps :: Frequently Asked Questions
Proper connection and placement of external effects is somewhat subjective and depends greatly upon the type of effect and the player. Generally speaking time-based/ambient effects (i.e. delay and reverb) sound best when run through an effects loop. Distortion, overdrive, boosters, wah, and compressors tend to sound best when connected directly to the amplifier's input. Modulation effects (chorus, flange, phaser, etc. See similar questions...

Do you manufacture transistorised effects pedals?

effectrode.com - tube effects company
Absolutely not! I exclusively build tube effects for guitar and that's where I will continue to target my research & development effort. My pedals are innovative redesigns of some the most outstanding effects the world has ever seen. An all tube signal path offers huge improvements in tonal dynamics and responsiveness compared to solid-state (trannie, FET or opamp) designs. To my ear, transistorised effects pedals have two major shortcomings. See similar questions...

f - WWhere is the best place to put my effects pedals within my set up?

How can I switch out my effects loop?

Kevin O'Connor's Amplifier / Tube Amplifier FAQ
It is best not to bypass the effects loop when all you want is a dry tone, because the dry tone will be changed. With mixing-type effects loops, which are the best types to use, the dry path is always present through the effects buffer and return mix amp. If these are properly designed, the loop is transparent and there is no change in the dry tone - the effects tone is merely added in as required. See similar questions...
