I noticed that I can control the volume of my amp (DR Roadster) by turning up or down the effect loop level.
For example if the loop level is set very low, I can turn up the Output a lot (am I working my power tubes harder in this case??).
Is there an optimal level (I am not using any effects in my loop)??
Does tone suffer if I run the loop low and compensate using the Output level?? Should the loop level be run at the maximum (in which case I would have to turn down the Output and channel volumes down)??
Thanks in advance for your help!
