Hi everyone. I'm new to this board. I just recieved my mark 5 head earlier this week and I must say it is truely unbelievable. I have alot of tweaking yet to do, but this f*&*ker just kills. :evil:

One thing I would like to know is what would you all recommend as the proper send level on the EFX loop. To me the hard bypass sounds way better than the active effects loop (I've heard other's on this board say this as well). However, I would like to use the loop so I can run some of my pedals (MXR's...True bypass). I would also like to be able to use my Tuner out, Output, and Solo channel (which can only be done through an active loop). I know that the topic of bypass vs. EFX has been brought up to some extent, but I think everyone would benefit to a certain degree as to using loops in a correct fashion.
 
Start with the FX level straight up at 12 o'clock for the best results and tweak from there depending on what you have going through the loop.
