Front ot back

[malapp10]

Hello all,

I have 4 H9’s, I guess the coolaide had something else in it.  Recently, I ordered the EvenMidi, if anyone is familiar with it, I would appreciate your input.  For now, my question is this:  I have a Mission volume, Mission WAH and Mission swithch along with the 4 H9’s.  I have the volume and WAH going to the front of the amp.  Should I put the 4 H9’s in the effects loop?  If it matter’s, I have a Mesa Boogie Mark V:35.

 

Thank-you in advance for your help.

What do you want the H9’s to do? For example, distortion algorithms will not sound their best in the FX loop but Shimmer probably will. You gave us quite a bit of information but I think we need more to be helpful.

obviously 2 H9s in the loop… 2 in front.

Thank you for your response. Since I prefer classic rock over any other genres, I felt that I would benefit by putting everything in the back. I get my break up from my amp. The Mesa Boogie has very nice break up and since it has built in antenuation at different wattage, it serves well for my distortion sounds. I am really working hard to learn the H9’s, yesterday I was working on a John Mayer song and found that shimmer, delay and reverb were all where I would want them. I am just wondering if I should just take one of these guys and put it in the front and leave the other three in the back. Your assistance is very valuable to me. Thanks.

You are right as rain the Mesa mark V has phenomenal distortion. 

 

Put one before and 3 after then!

I would need one before.. for pitch shifters at minimum.

I run a pre/post rig… because obviously I need my crunch (CB Brothers) before delays or verbs.. but I need the H9 to pitchshift or wah before my distortion, no?

Maybe you dont use that stuff on the H9.. but if you have 4 of them….. you certainly CAN. 

 

SO- At least one before the amp. At least 2 in the loop.

I went ahead and put one in front and the other three behind. I got to play for a short time and liked the sound. I think with the Mesa overdrive you are freed up to do other things.
