Re: Guitar Signal Question - A Bit OT

[PaulPokr@aol.com]

Hi:

I just struggled with a similar problem. I'm running my guitar into a 
Line6 Pro Pod then into an Alesis Quadraverb then into my Mackie mixer 
(with interchangable guitar pedals prior to the Pro Pod on occasion). I'm 
now taking a direct out of the mixer into a Behringer patchbay that 
connects to a PreSonus Blue Max compressor. Then into the Echoplex. The 
compressor helped out immeasurably with guitar as well as with digital 
drums, Roland Handsonic, et al into the Echoplex.

Prior to using the compressor to front-end the Echoplex, I was having weak 
signal problems or, if I boosted the Echoplex gain, horrible distortion 
problems.

Now I can get a nice, hefty signal into Echoplex (and keep the led nice 
and green with an occasional orange) with no distortion.
