Argle Bargle or Foofaraw?
I'm not particularly knowledgeable about pedals, and I could use some guidance. I'm playing a show soon, and I need 2 basic sounds for the show: (1) clean with chorus for The Pretenders Back on the Chain Gang and (2) distortion. I have a few solos where I need to be able to boost my volume, too.
I borrowed a friend's Voodoo Labs Analog Chorus pedal at a rehearsal the other night, and this was my first time using it. I didn't have much time to adjust settings since we were rushing to try to run the entire set.
I was running Guitar > Boss TU-2 > MXR 78 Badass > Voodoo Labs Analog Chorus > Peavey Classic 30. Not going into the Effects Loop.
When I turned on the chorus (distortion off), I got a sudden boost in volume. Any thoughts as to why this happened? Should I run the distortion and chorus through the effects loop?
Also, if I want to be able to boost my volume for solos, would it work to have 2 different volume levels set for the clean and overdrive channels on the amp, and switch between the channels (using footswitch) when needed? Or would it be better to simply use a pedal for boost?
