Boss Gt-8 in fx loop of a dual recto

[dual rec]

Anyone own one and run it with ur dual. Also does it suck tone from the amp.

I think to get it to work correctly, you'd need to get the FX loop modded in the amp from Parallel to series. You could run a few time based FX, but that'd be about it with the parallel loop.... otherwise stuff would start sounding out-of-phase. You can get a loop modded to series for about $75 and most amp/boogie repair shops. But I think it does void the warranty if that's a concern.

If you already have the BOSS, it'd be a GREAT FX unit for delay and verb, but I woudn't go buy one expecting great things from it until you mod the Boogies FX loop. You can use Cheap Behringer pedals in the loop now and not have it kill your tone and save $400.

Hope this helps.
