Can somebody confirm or explode a myth for me - are effects loops all they are cracked up to be?? I've got a Rectoverb series 2 and can't get on with the parallel effects loop, the delay in particular sounds dire. I run all my pedals in front of the amp. Sounds OK to me and I guess plenty of folk did it this way in the days before loops were invented. I sometimes wonder if I'm missing out on something and perhaps a smarter guy than me would fix the loop and maybe get some benefit.
Any thoughts? I play in a covers band, mostly rock with some MOR quieter stuff. I like the guitar to sound natural so I only use the pedals individually, not in combination. Thanks
