the thumbnail alone helped me tremendously.
FINALLY a video where they actually SHOW you the signal chain. Do you know how many videos I had to watch that promised this and didn't? Thanks!!! Great job!
Best video about pedal order, straight to the point and accurate
Welcome to CZcams sir! Glad to have someone who knows how to explain these complex things in a simple way
Great information for someone who is new in a crazzy cosmic world of guitar toys! Simply explained! 👌
Thank you. Don't forget to watch also the video about buffers czcams.com/video/TDvro9kiFYM/video.html
If you put a modulation pedal in your effects loop, I will personally come to your house and give you a very stern look.
Don't tempt me with a good time

@@ajhproductions2347.. just assholes huh..?
What did evh do there was no ex loop
Er…if you want a muddy tone then yeah put it in front of your OD 😂
Thanks, being a novice with FX peddles and so on, this is a great place for me to start, thanks again ;)
Ahh thank you. I didnt like having my drive before the super octave bit it didnt sound right after the flanger and chorus either. You solved my problem in less than a minute
This is good advice for beginners, but it's also a very good idea to experiment with pedal order and combinations of pedals that you dont normally hear together, you may find something really cool, that you wouldn't find by following conventional wisdom.
There are some things that dont work, like drive/distortion/fuzz in the fx loop. Sounds terrible, and it'll drop the amp volume severely.
Certain drive pedal, like the BOSS MT-2 Metal Zone, perform very well in the effects loop.
If you put tuner as last you can use it to mute even echo and reverb. An old analog fuzz is the one which probably prefers to be the first but no hard rule for that either. Some vibes might also want to be in the beginning phase. Just experimenting with a delay into OD and sounds pretty nice, just saying.
Sure, if the tuner has a buffer better after any wha wha or old fuzz.
Neat and straightforward 👍
Thank you
What an excellent tutorial. !
Very easy to grasp,,,,this stuff can be easily over complicated,,,TY ! To all involved,,,,😎👍
I generally put compressor after overdrive or distortion
I really enjoy what you have composed here. I would just like to give a tiny bit of input. I really hope this is a good suggestion. I see this video as being aimed at more entry level players or experienced players that are new to pedals. So here’s the suggestion, One thing I think should be mentioned is if nothing else just the existence of buffers and maybe a quick explanation of why you might need one. I played guitar 20 years either with no buffers in my signal chain or a couple buffers that I didn’t know about because I wasn’t educated on the subject. No one had ever mentioned to me a thing about buffers. No one ever told me ALL boss pedals have and operate as buffers.
Back to my suggestion. I think to have just mentioned a buffer in this video would get anyone serious enough to do their own research. Look, I just woke up and the house is quite and I’m just waking up. If this is a pointless post, just let me know and I’ll delete it lol
Wow! You just anticipated us for few days. The new guide we published is about Buffers! Available here (fita.live/buffer-pedalborad-guide/). We are finishing to make the related video, similar to this one, so just stay tuned!
@@morellotg SWEET! I’m gonna go watch it. I love watching new content even if I think I got a full handle on things. I almost always end up learning something new anyway. Lol
Yes! it will be available soon.
Excellent 👌.... simple and practical.
Many thanks and regards from Chris Bunch of flowers music
Lifesaver, nearly blew up my amp.
I prefer the wah after the distortion. The rest I agree upon.
So using the Return and Send "Turns Off" the Overdrive/Drive distortion of the amp? If so, why not just crank the distortion from the amp all the way to zero?
If not, why not just put the modulation effects at the end of the effects chain?
over the years I've wasted so much money on pedals and different effects but now that I'm older and wiser I've realized all you really need is a good fender tube amp with a wah and a tuner pedal😉
Terima kasih banyak ilmunya, 🙏🙏
In my opinion it is easier to use a WAH pedal and a digital multi effect after... like that it would not only save more space but make guitarists less confused...
Don't forget to put a buffer after the wah and another one at the very end of the signal chain.
Thank you for your comment. Here the video about buffers in the pedalboard: czcams.com/video/TDvro9kiFYM/video.html
can i add DI box in this pedal order?? if can, where i have to put em in chain...,, btw thanks🙏, this video very easy to understand for me as a beginner👍🙏🙏🙏
You need to register to get the pdf.
Great video , how do I use this setup for recording into my audio interface
Would multi effects pedals be last?
thanks!
Do you put a boss AW-3 dynamic wah in the same place you would put a regular wah (dunlop cry baby)?
what about the detune pedal? is it considered as chorus or pitch shifter?
How to connect guitar amp to biger sounds system
What kind of cables I need to power them?
The PDF guide link is not working any longer
Incomplete, what about Noise Gate, DigiTech Trio, Looper, and where would Buffer Pedals go when using these three pedals in addition to those you’ve shown?
More is in the guide and in the other video about buffer pedals.
where should I put a vol/wah pedal? like the Sonicake wah volume pedal
NEVER talk about send and return because a great many amps don't have them:)
What if my amp doesn't have the send and return effects loop thing?
No problem, use the single effects chain that goes to the amp input.
your pdf guide link is broken. takes you to site that isnt registered
just fixed. Thank you.
Follow advice......
He didnt mention fuzz...
I subscribed, but never got the PDF.
Thank you. It can be that the email was classified by the client as promo or spam, could you check it?
1:39 so it is phisically necessary to have 3 cables running from the pedalboard chassis to the amp? (send/return/guitar in)
if you choose to use the send/return loop yes. There are some boxes that can be used in the pedalboard to help in this kind of configuration.
Con, the pdf isn’t there you have to give up your email address
And obviously, your loop pedal last
Modulation doesn’t belong in the loop.
PDF is…G O N E…😩
just fixed. Thank you.
Guitar should go right AFTER compressor!!!!
"The right order doesn't exist"
while he starts on right 🤔
lol guess you never had a Fuzz Factory. Yikes
That's another story
Yes. And dont forget that a guitar only exist to play blues and rock scales. Everything else is for bad guitarrist.
noise gate etc... why not make a full line up video. this is useless.
is this a text-to-speech robot talking? ock-TEI-ver.... *shudder*
